Decisions

We grew up together 
But grew apart 
You chose the fast life
I chose to go far
You chose to criticize me 
I chose to look over you 
You chose to make wrong decisions  
And I chose to think things through
You always told me that I wouldn’t amount to anything
But maybe that’s because you didn’t accomplish many things
But through all that I still love you...
And you inspired me to be better than you

Bitter sweet. The people we meet, love and lose and continue to love. Beautiful. Stephen
