Every Step

I walk,
and walk,
and walk,
oblivious
to my
surroundings.
Every step
further
from reality.
Every step
a minute
of time gone.
Every step
I took
for you.

I like the lines "Every stop/ a minute/ of time gone". Step right up to the mike, LD, your voice is loud and clear. In a few short words, you've expressed anger, pain, heartache and gave the reader a glimpse into your heart. Nice one. I like the length of it, too.

So much emotion expressed in so few words.
Good work, I understand those weary feet.
