I was ignorant to your decision
because you didn't know how to make one
You let me decided what the options were
without asking me if I wanted
to carry the burden of your choice
The fault is all mine now
that I have spoiled your chance to choose
if you wanted something else, another option
the choice has been made, it is done
There is no more I can do
I accept what has happened
and perhaps it was meant to be like this
If I am lucky you will not blame me
you will revel in the choice I made
but it lies on my shoulders, this awareness
that you may regret
I ask myself if I can see through your eyes
What would I do if I was you?
but the truth is I am blind
I thought I knew what was in your head
that you, not I, was taking a step
in this direction
It seems that I was leading
unconsciously, leading you the way I wanted
towards the thing we both wanted
I know you wanted it
but was it right, I can't answer that
If only you could reassure me
make me feel that I have done right
but time is the mistress here
It will tell us the story
as you realize what has happened
Will you respect or reject what you saw in me?
Will you still call on me?
when you are confused
and you need someone to help you
make a choice.
