» Poem: Amused
Amused
written by Trapezium

You look down on me
And try to beat me to the ground,

You attempt to cut me with your words
But those words are blunt
And bend, like a thin sheet of rubber.

You mock me, and laugh at my mistakes
All the while, not realising how much I've helped you
I know you're insecure inside
But why do you take it out on me?

You act like royalty
And trample on anyone underfoot.

I believed your lies, once upon a time
And now, as I see through your disguise
You just try to bring me down.

I guess you'll never realise
Your words only belittle you,

And when you sit on your high horse
I'm safe, knowing that my tower is higher than any animal.
