I thought you said
that you would not protect me
unless I did things your way.
With these older eyes,
I see that does not make sense
given your heart and your actions.
You must have been saying
your way was safest--
a kind of protection.
Well, you are gone now.
We can't adjust and reconnoiter;
in lieu of relationship--a choice
to shine a truer light
on an old misinterpretation
and to follow your advice
or not.
This brought tears . . .
