24th floor

"It's supposed to feel on top of the world", they said
Being loved; loving.
"You gotta feel so high that it grounds you."
"Like Mount Everest;"
Whatever that feels like.
But it feels like the 24th floor.

Damn it, it feels like the 24th floor!

It's supposed to take your breath away,
The view is supposed to be heavenly.
The journey tough and the climb tedious

The destination brilliant and worth it; completely.

"It supposed to feel like Mount Everest", they said

They've probably been there...

The view is beautiful from the 24th floor,

And I must be mad to ask for more.

But they speak of Everest and my heart wants to go!

Forgive me, 24th floor.
