I Am Important, Too
Poem by KittenishDamsel©
(Camille Segovia)
I
It's another day
To sweep the floor.
Mop and pail
Are my best armor.
II
Dirth and dust,
My worst enemy.
But without it
How can I be?
III
Holding the knob
Opening each door.
The hard silence noise
Makes me hear my own voice.
IV
There's no one here
'Coz it's too early.
But in a minute
There's everybody.
V
When will be the time
I will belong to that everybody?
When will be the time
I will not be nobody?
VI
A nineteen year old strength
Cleaning the whole place.
When will they stop?
Calling me
Just somebody?
