I left because you never asked me to stay,
I realised that I had to find my way!
It dawned upon me that in life you are on your own,
So the mantle of self-reliance I decided to don!
As I gathered the courage to go my own way,
I was mesmerised by the splendid
hues of the unfolding day!
As the adventures of the journey beckoned to me,
I opened out my arms to them with glee!
It seeped into me that my destiny was my own to make,
The plunge into the seeming abyss was my own to take,
The seeds were my own to sow,
The boat of action was my own to row,
I had to push myself to be a person on the go!
With you gone, my God showed me the way,
His presence showed up as a luminous ray,
I went ahead knowing that He watched over me,
And would always be there to resolve my every dilemma and hear my every plea!
I left because you never asked me to stay,
But it proved a blessing as It helped me find my own way!
