Due Payment

The crushing weight of all you could be is falling on you,
you’re atlas with all his deeds in the form of a towering rock,
but you’re missing all your chances to turn it to rubble,
they’re pleading for you to take responsibility,
you’re crushing their souls and spirits as you run into nothing,
I’m picking bad hands, but you’ve always had an affinity for the eerie blackjack,
and I can’t help but notice you’re bluffing,
they’re coming for you now,
you’ve shrunk yourself to nothing, but they’ll find you still,
you may be a pebble,
but you’ve eroded them to gravel.
