Feeling Echo

Echo
I am but merely an echo
No life to call my own

Being
Everywhere yet nowhere
existing only when needed

Forever
I'm filled with emotions
Never to call my own

Used
By all living creatures
Unable too resist them

Through
The ages I have seen,
Through the ages I shall be

Time
I have for eternity
Knowing I cannot fade
forever shall be my fate
Carrying emotions such as hate

    "Unable too resist them

    "Trough" - "Trough" is something horses drink out of, do you mean "Through"?

    "The ages i have seen," - "i" would be "I"

    "Trough the ages i shall be" - "Trough" - "through"?

    "Knowing i cannot fade" - "i" would be "I".

    * First of all: congrats for your golden trophy! I've always known you could do it, just have a little confidence

    * Second: indeed, this is a beautiful poem.
    'No life to call my own' --- sounds really recognisable
    '....Time....
    I have for eternity
    Knowing i cannot fade
    forever shall be my fate' --- this is so sad, knowing you cannot fade, even if you really want to.. hmm, I mostly have the feeling that i AM fading, but yeah..
    describing an echo can't be easy, but you did a great job!

    * Third: I'm waiting for your next poem! another beautiful piece, if it's not too much to ask
    (hmm, my last poem is dated the same as this one, so I'm the one to talk *blushes*)

    * Fourth: how are you? haven't talked to you in a while, and was just wondering how you've been (wa nieuws?

    Well, that's it I guess

    thanx for entering!
    yes echo is a weird choice, but i was really looking forward to one of those, since that could be one of the hardest.
    i really like what you have done here, some very clever choices of words and the elipsis give it a very light, echoey feel.....i am very impressed!!
    well done!!
    good luck!!
