there's no way out (Free verse) by oneglove
i'm weary of tracing
the path worn thin
by maybe next times
and begin agains
now a ditch dug deep
with faults stacked high
in comforting darkness
with forgotten sky
superficially close
to brightness of light
stumbling in shadows
shaking with fright
i pause and wonder
how could i rewind
and choose a path
that would be more kind
when i'm eight feet down
and i've dug my grave
my closet is empty
and cadavers hold the spade
there's no way out
