Sore shoulders Bruised back Letting go Can't react Pit in the stomach Remains of the past Body aching Will it last Walking forever Stride by stride Smiles fade Hope has died Mind loses temperament Thoughts grow weak Promises fade Whispers of deceit Eyes fall shut Visions grow weary Speech falls away Who's left to hear me Suffocation sets Consumed by fear Dreams of light The path is clear Sinking in dirt Engulfed by life Stones disappear Ridden with strife Paths fall short Beneath a seam Fading away Remnants to a dream Steps fade Left alone One purpose A stepping stone

Stepping Stone
Sore shoulders Bruised back Letting go Can't react Pit in the stomach Remains of the past Body aching Will it last Walking forever Stride by stride Smiles fade Hope has died Mind loses temperament Thoughts grow weak Promises fade Whispers of deceit Eyes fall shut Visions grow weary Speech falls away Who's left to hear me Suffocation sets Consumed by fear Dreams of light The path is clear Sinking in dirt Engulfed by life Stones disappear Ridden with strife Paths fall short Beneath a seam Fading away Remnants to a dream Steps fade Left alone One purpose A stepping stone
For all those who have felt walked on in life
