The Roots
March 6, 2023
We are needed,
We are hidden.
Concealed down below
The support is given.
You know what you require,
You pretend it is not me.
Our exhilaration extinguished
As we are pushed to our knees.
I want to protest,
I want to yell,
We are the reason you succeed!
But I was never designed to rebel.
We have caused the glory.
We have no power.
Forever forgotten.
The roots of the flower
