Hell of a Highway

Standing between the white walls As my heart pounds my chest Almost leaping out completely Everything closes in Slower. And slower. And s l o w e r. A cushioned fall onto the concrete Created with my grinded mistakes Standing on my lies and my past And who I used to be Weak. A victim of a 'game.' That I never knew. I never wished or dreamed Or knew it would happen But it came. Slipping down a slope The slope. My slope. Sliding down despair Going further down And further. Way down. Until I cracked.
