The Floor


Step after step The pain numbs me Stomp after stomp The ceiling smirks mockingly Click after click- Those must be heels- The walls laugh Ha-Ha The ridicule doesn't hurt me For without me, You The ceiling and the roof Would never exist No "Thank You" is heard But I do not fret The feet smell The heels hurt The lack of gratitude is disappointing But sometimes you must think of others Before yourself Step Step Stomp Stomp Click Click You're Welcome
