Every Step
With every inch I gain
I fall three steps behind
Everything’s in vain
I’m always walking blind
I breathe but I also drown
I jump but I tumble and fall
I get up but sink back down
I'm free but surrounded by a wall
I love but I get left behind
I hate but I hate me more inside
Every step I take is killing me
I’m walking through mud
Every step I take is breaking me
Back bowed, face down
I struggle and crawl
…on my knees
(Where I belong)
Begging for (more) this to end
okay, so this is just one of many Poems I hurriedly write down. Originally the phrases in brackets were crossed out, but I can't see how to do it here.... And again, have mercy, I'm not a native speaker and also not living in an english speaking country
