assume - the sonnet


So important Don Miguel said not to -
assume; he only had three other rules.
i have assumed when i should just ask you
no matter if you're wise or with the fools

Do you assume? if so, why, what reason?
Mostly i assume when not feeling strong, 
for giving up choice is like self-treason.
Bullshit true, but feelings aren't right or wrong.

The key may be to revere the question -
"may i sit down?" , "would you like to visit?"
leaving room for another's decision . . 
"yes" or "no" without me to inhibit. ?

I will not speak for you; that much i've learned,
but do now seek those things for which i've yearned.
