Stairs vs Stares

Date of entry: 6.28.23

It's hard to say

Which intimidates me more

For you to understand

Let me show you what's in store...

There are stairs

And there are stares

Which come

from everywhere

Well one comes

And one's just there

But I hate both

Stairs and stares

Every curve and every roll

Right out on display

I'm constantly wondering

What will everybody say?

Wear a crop top

Or a swimsuit

Those days you really

Feel cute

And watch those silent stares

Tear you down

Or break a sweat

And hold your breath

Because those stairs

Will take you out

Heart racing

Legs burning

Mouth dryer

Than a drought

You stare at me

I panic

Those tall stairs

Make me manic

And let's not even mention

The confrontation

I hold my head up high

When I really want to cry

And I'm trying not

To lose my concentration

The embarrassment's unreal

And the aching that I feel

When I get both at the same time

I can't even deal...

I will always hate the stairs

But not as much as I hate stares

Well I really hate the stairs

So I'll hate both and keep it fair.
