Servant GirlA Poem by A.LeeLook down, love, here I am Kneeling low before your feet This lady's here for all you need To hold you up when you are weak I try not to walk in front of you So as not to block your way I stand beside you, loyal servant, Keep those with bad intent at bay I'm a pedestal for your feet When you're too weary to stand alone No matter if hurt, or tired, or sore For its your place that I call home Look down, love, here I am Fighting to do all that you ask Putting myself aside as best I can Covering me up with an iron mask I'm a pillar for you to lean on Whenever things for you get rough And though I try so very hard It seems I'm never good enough I don't know how to make you see That for your smile, I'd give my all Your lady is ready to sacrifice Herself to break your fall Look down, love, here I am Kneeling low beneath your feet Giving everything I have In hopes you'll someday notice me © 2010 A.Lee |
