"You are the reason I'm here," I confessed to him.  "All you had to do was ask.  I've respected you for so long, and I love the way you lead.. I knew that I wanted to follow you.  And when you did ask, there was no hesitation.  I knew I'd found a home.  How can you leave me, when you're the reason I'm here?"

And he said, "I brought you here and showed you the way.  Now I'll let you fly with your own wings.  Now, I'll go save someone else, somewhere else."

"But there's so much more we have left to do," I cried.  "I can't find my way on my own."

"I know you can.  You just need me to leave so you can realize it."


Where I lead you cannot follow.
