Elevator

Keep the pedestal, my love.
It's all I ever gave to you,
And you're resplendent on it.
Let the others crane their necks
And see the subtle beauty
Of your face, the light
Within your eyes. You no
Longer want me here. I'll
Go, but do not leave your
Perch. I put you there to be
Adored by all, not only me.
