Least Favorite

You can't see, you don't know
That least favorite is death row
I'm human just like you
Why can't I be regarded too?
Irrelevant as they come
Insignificant as they go
Surprising I'm not numb
To the recurring misery and woe
You know they love you and so do I
But mutual obstinacy has gone awry
Sending tensions orbiting the sky
I can see it in your eyes
It's there: the frigidity I despise
But until I can burn the snow
Least favorite is death row
