floor

taylr

When I slumped down and hit

the cold hard floor of my

kitchen, at least I could

find solace in the fact

there was no further to fall.

I pressed my head against

the cabinet that won’t close -

too many pans and pots

inside, we filled it to

the brim so it just creaks.

I pressed my face against

the white door, and I cried.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this deciding that I felt like using an unusual meter and I wanted to get it on the page ASAP. I achieved both of those things - this poem is in iambic trimeter and I wrote it in 5 minutes flat. I hope someone else can find solace in my words.
