No Complaints

Exhaustion. As she moves about the de-pressurized cabin
30,000 ft and falling
She feels the weight of the world
As if somehow SHE is holding it up
A superhero in cowards clothing
But she has no complaints
Task upon task
Exponential the risk
She quietly takes the all on
As if to tell her competitors to shove it
But she has no complaints
Fatigue and starvation are her only friends on the road to success
Resentment coarses through her
As a thousand nerve endings die at the base of her spine
She still holds the world
But she has no complaints
A woman is who she is
No apologies for it
No complaints
