Why Do I Care?

Freed me from my burden, your choices are yours alone.

Pick you up, once you’ve fallen, that is that all I can do

Do I wish you had more sensibility, of course it is true

You are making choices that will only kill your soul

Choking out your life, leaving you less than whole.

Deserve better, you certainly do, resigning yourself

To the settler’s folly.  Nostalgia is a poison; complacency, death.
