For What You Decide

''FOR WHAT YOU DECIDE'' Hey...how you doin' No, I did not call up...to argue But I have to admit That I don't understand The reason you're acting, this way If it's something I said I'm sorry Though I cannot recall A harsh word In our last conversation I spoke from the heart Of my love and commitment to you I know how you Valiantly struggle With the issues of pain From your past And though try as you may It spills over into What we have But because of the way That I feel about you I stand firm When all others might run Finding new levels of Courage and patience Within me I realize you're having a Problem with trust But trust is A double edged sword And I need to trust That in some ways We're solidly rooted You can't want me today And not want me tomorrow Or sometimes, not know "What" you want This can't work if we Don't lay foundation And baby, I'm trying... So if you're not Feeling me...please Walk away This see-saw Is driving me crazy Im good to you Twenty-four, seven And yes, that's "my" choice But at least let me see That my feelings mean something Or that they mean nothing...at all The choice is now yours And I'm ready, For what you, decide
