I Will Fall
He told me I was perfect
His angel
I saved him from… something
Without me, he would die
He would fall
I am not the Saviour
I am not an angel
Please don’t set me up
For I will fall
I am small
I am human
Don’t make me your idol
I will fall
I love this and can relate. I grow nervous when someone puts me on pedestal and tells me I can keep them from failing in life, when I'm human and sure to fail them. This is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the previous comment and with your poem. "Don't make me your idol/I will fall." Truth, indeed!
ReplyDeleteI really love this, it's touching!
ReplyDeleteBeen chucked of a pedestal two times. It hurt so bad I surely don't want to be on one again. Thanks for this poem.
ReplyDeleteAmen to that!!! We will all fall!!
