Considering we were meant to do this together
I have decided I am doing all I can and it is enough.
I know you are sitting with it....
all the choices that are yours,
still considering.
Had I the myriad of entanglements left
I suppose I might still be bound to such a fate.
With consideration for all it will take for you,
I consider that only opportunity for me
to consider all the more the multitude of points,
explore the variety of perspectives, and
treasure each one of the many-splendored choices
you may make when you decide which road to take.
Free to choose, I see I can move, adjust,
walk in a way of wholeness either way.
Being with it, I am considering
that blessed place of convergence where at last
we will emerge side by side and be done with considering.
No more debating the preamble
or getting the pretext just right.
I reconsider some leap into pretense
but I am done with that tonight.
I am considerably complete with my own consideration,
knowing yet there is so much to be considered.
So... consider this: you have defined your life
with kind consideration, excluding only one.
Have you considered you?
