I am honest

I was honest
I did not deceive you
Did not seduce you with promises
Or lure you to your fall
I didn't push you to your death
Or laugh as you broke
I was honest
I spoke truths on deaf ears
I cautioned of my instability
And emphasized my uncertainty
I secured a ladder for you to climb up
Or down
You stood on tiptoes
In a storm
On the top rung
Where the warning label says
Do Not Stand On Or Above This Rung or Step
YOU CAN LOSE YOUR BALANCE
And you jumped
This is not all my fault
No, I didn't catch you
But I didn't push you either
You jumped
