Bastardised Ink

one step back
one step gone
one step ahead
on the way to die
no way to lie
as a hidden crack
runs down my spine
breaking bones
aching mind
stumbling blind
through the sticks and stones
leave me out
leave no doubt
never grieve
relieve me know
entangled thoughts
unstable ground
strangled at their roots
and no more sound
all alone, all the way
maybe it's too late
soul is blown away
maybe it's all fate
