Silent

8 2 0
                                    

At the base of the stairs
Nobody cares
Your feet are nailed to the floors
Still it's I no one adores
My every square inch
Weighs ten thousand pounds
I'm so tired of this pinch
I scream silently aloud
Everyone loves me now
Inner pain from around
They stand at the base
I, at the edge of the high place
