My way

Do what you wish with life,
I will respect your choice.
Do not try to rule mine,
by muffling my voice.


You are all that you are,
I am all that I am,
Your words carry great charm,
but I reject commands.


While driving on your lane,
you will find your own path.
My blinders shield my brain,
I soak in my own bath.


A helpful suggestion
could at times feel so nice,
but if unrequested,
you can keep your advice.


Judgements can be telling,
when your eyes witness needs.
Everyone else is helping,
your main focus is greed.


As I live and let live,
hope you can understand.
Choosing to simply give,
requires no demands
.
