Poems - Tall

Tall

by Translantasism

How did you get so much bigger than I am?
You stand up with the buildings of the city.
Solid structure - your feet planted so firmly
on the ground.
Its not hard to lose sight of me,
down here - such a small and insignificant spec
on the pavement.
To you way up there with your head in the clouds.
Im too afraid of heights to leave this gravel road.
But I will still be here to watch you crumble,
from the top
and try to pick up your pieces.

Skye.

cute, somehow unaccomplished, you should have worked more on it in terms of images and wording

this seems personal, but i almost got the feeling of it being God....until the end....but that didn't ruin it or anything, it just left me with a strange feeling. i liked the write!
