A Choice For Me

I always thought that my family would always be there for me I once dated someone that they didn't approve of If felt like they had withdrawn all of their love My life is my own to live as I choose I should not feel like the color of my life is blue When you make your decisions as you choose to do I don't stop acting like I love you My decision I make is to make me happy Even if you don't always agree One thing has nothing to do with the other I'm still your sister, and you are still my mother You don't have the right to sit back and judge Just because I choose not to have a grudge It still doesn't change who I may be But it doesn't give you the right to withdraw from me I can't sit here and honestly say That it doesn't break my heart for things to be this way Life is too short not to forgive and forget if I choose to do that without regret If this was a choice that you made for you I'd stick by your side in whatever you choose to do So stop talking about me behind my back, because you do not agree This is my life, my decision, and my choice for me
