Guidance.

Change Your ways,
Change Your views,
Life would easier,
Had You not expected to lose.

This mindset You carry,
This attitude You cradle,
Had You taken the upside,
You would not expect betrayal.

The long road You take,
The road I help You go astray,
This road I know too well,
Please, I only hope You don't partake.

I endlessly offer guidance,
Though I no longer equate,
With or without me,
I'm never going to be that mistake.
