You do not have to apologize, I understand; <br />You do not have to explain your actions, I do not require one; <br />You do not have go over what we had once planned, <br />Because we both were not ready, yet now desire one! <br />What we are supposed to do, is whatever you decide, <br />I will be with you all the way, and be there with pride <br />I shall, all the way-never wavering in my fidelity <br />Toward you, despite what has occured-this does naught for our futurity, <br />But repeat our mistakes of the past, in not forgetting them! <br />Only when you allow the past and others to decide, are you letting them <br />Decide the life that you lead, and not them-it is not their's to question- <br />Once more Beloved, God wants you to Truly know, that this is the lesson <br />That He wishes to impart to both of us, as part of the same lesson, Planned- <br />And we must be obedient to His every Wish for us, to His every Command!<br /><br />Maurice Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-do-not-have-to-apologize/
