Pedestal

The pedestal you set me on Is getting battered and grey Even cracked in a few places Supported by a wobbly leg The consequence of this pedestal Is the distance it creates Leaving me standing here, watching you While my tattered heart waits Waiting for the love we could have shared Adventures of life we were meant to share If merely the distance from this pedestal Would simply only fade

Such a sad picture you paint and so well. I don't miss the lack of rhyme at all. It flows freely and your message is clear. Good job, Kristie.
