Every Step

Every Step

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

Every step I take

Every move I make

Changes that I am on the inside

Running to the truth on the outside

I just want to hide

There is so much shame

There is no more pride

 

I just want to leave

But there is nowhere to go

I am sinking like a stone

An ocean is drowning me

I don’t know what to do?

I’m screaming

Trying to get an answer from you

 

I am puking out words

I think I might cut my own throat

Just to know that I live in this world of hurt

There’s no stopping now I’ve all ready grabbed hold

You’re a secret that I’ve always told

Does this ever end?

Do the words ever quit?

 

I’m running in circles, just to get around

Carving in on my skin

Maybe it will make some sense

The words on a letter that you can’t see

With-out a sound it all makes me bleed

Does anyone really give a s**t?

 

Another step to take

Another mistake to make

So much for the shame

I will hold this blame like a flame

I won’t come out the same

My whole life has been changed

A very battered tired poem. You can feel the pain emanate from your words in a very upfront manner. I really like how you designed the voice of this poem. Great work!
