Pedestal
I hear you in my statements and see you in my face, Constantly I search for this place that doesn't exist, Where I was of worth to you, Instead I am an obstacle in your path, You have chosen to discard me all in the name of love, Or so it would appear, but it is clear it is only your fear that has left me here, In a disarray feeling betrayed, because of you I never measure up, You taught me how to lower my self esteem, Because you denied your own dreams, Yet I pedestal you're presence like you've been everything you weren't, Wishing I could burn this bridge that has never been built, One of the greatest men I've ever known who has left me all alone.
