Never Stopping

Pacing,
Back and
Forth
Back and
Forth,
Step
By step,
Slowly,
My mind deteriorating
Just a little more
With each thud of my foot
Against the hard wood floor,
Echoing throughout the house,
A never ending reminder
Of the loneliness that drove me
To this insanity.
Pacing,
Back and
Forth
Back and
Forth,
Step
By step,
Knowing I'll never
Make any progress
On this wheel
We call life,
Always stuck in one place,
Wishing to escape
The repetition of the day,
But not sure how
To stop the wheel
From spinning.
