Down from the Pedestal
You fell from the pedestal
With a strong resounding crash
I rushed to pick the pieces
To throw them out with the trash
I worked to clean the rubble
That your falling left behind
Surprised that I had no tears
For I knew I had been blind
I had simply adored you
I had worshipped at your feet
I had seen you as perfect
To be near you was my treat
I made you a demi god
Invested you with great charm
Couldn’t see the tell-tale cracks
You used devotion to harm
For I thought you were splendid
My life revolved around you
Little did my trusting heart
Believe what they said was true
But then my eyes were opened
Caught a glimpse of what is real
My heart started to crumble
Each piece unable to feel
You fell from the pedestal
I see you with different eyes
That lie was the fatal crack
That brought about your demise
