Go for Broke

Under your nails
My skin
Fractured fingers
And toes
Pulse
Pound
You grab my hand
My shins splintered
As I spit the thick black
Gravel from my mouth
The sound of you
Grinding your teeth
Echoes in my ears
"Never stop running"
They shout
"Unstoppable"
We hear
And somewhere deep inside
We both know
We'll make it.
