Doormat

Doormat
To your home
Walking
All over it
Question
Not the reason
Do
As everyone else
Think
The doormat has no feelings
Because
It lets others walk,
Tread
Across its fragile frame
Until
The tears spill out
 

Author's Note

would it be stronger if instead of the "it"s i used "her"s?

Yes, actually, this piece would make alot more sense if you used "her" instead-it was quite meant to.

I think it sounds great as it. If you added her instead it would be too obvious and what's so great about this poem is that it's not. The simplicity is fantastic and really adds to the story. Really nicely done.
