&quot;Principles only mean something if you stick by them when they&#039;re inconvenient,&quot; <br /> - Laine Hanson (Joan Allen) in The Contender (written by Rod Lurie)


I'm falling
Down the stairs

The first step I was walking
The second step was jogging
The third step I was running
The fourth step I was falling

I'm falling
Down the stairs

I look behind me and I see
My mom
My grandmother
My friends
But I don't see you

Aren't you supposed to be there
For me
But instead of having the support
I need
I have to die like this
Alone

I'm falling
Down the stairs

And you don't even care

I really like this poem, even though it is kinda sad. Good job!
