The Power of Choice

When have I ever truly had options?
When have I ever known best?
When have I ever been right?

It felt wrong to pick you
it felt terrible to cut it off
I still mourn what I lost to get you
is that so wrong?

It felt right to leave you
it felt good to pass my feelings off
I struggled to forget what I had with you
was I right after all?

It felt wrong to want you back
it felt wrong to put pride aside
I know it was pleasant, but it was still a shocking surprise
For the first time in my life, I was right

I was right to pick you
I was right to cut it off
I was able to mourn it all
I saw myself be strong

For this gift I cannot repay you
because you have shown me just how I wish to live
There will never be anyone able to replace you
you are the first person I have ever been able to forgive
