So many nights in my life
i have sit and cried,
i thought to myself that
it was so unfair that you
made me so miserable.
I would ask myself over
and over how you could
be so heartless and cruel,
how you could find happiness
in the hurtful things you do?
Why i wondered does he try
so hard to hurt me and
bring such pain into my life?
Why doesn't he love me and
try to make me happy?
It finally came to me on
one of those painful nights,
i was expecting something
of you that you could in no
way accomplish even if you tried.
I was blaming you for something
that was in no way your fault,
i was blaming you for the mistakes
i willingly made,the wrong paths
and the bad choices i made.
I finally came to realize in
a moment of truth that no other
person is responsible for making
another human being happy in this life
it's a choice we have to make.
Yes i can choose to be happy
with the person i am with but
it's not his decision or responsibility
to work at making me happy or sad
it's my choices that choose my fate.
It's my responsibility,my happiness
lies in my ability to make
choices that will enable me to
be happy with myself and the person
i choose to share my life with.
Each persons happiness is our
own responsibility to our self,
only we can make our self happy.
We each choose our own destiny
and decide if we are happy or sad.
