Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDEDFGEFHIE| I feel like you just left the elevator to get on your floor | A |
| And i stayed | B |
| But my heart followed you | C |
| And the elevator doors slammed on my heartstrings | D |
| And I m left hanging there Lifeless | D |
| But you just keep walking You re moving along going on your journey not hearing everything behind you Not seeing | E |

Poet's note: This poem is inspired by heartbreak, feeling strung along while someone moves on effortlessly. I wanted to emphasize the painful feeling in the heart with these specific emotions. Feeling pulled, strung along, left behind, and a very specific hurt. Knowing that they’re completely oblivious to what they’ve done to you and the hurt they’re putting you through. This poem is inspiring because the analogy is very powerful.
