If I stand still and drink my fill
of the world that’s round about me,
would you blame me?
If I lose my way, from day to day
travel in circles that confound me
would you blame me?
If I search for life, leave my title of wife,
hiding the doubts inside me
would you blame me?
The question I ask, taking myself to task
it’s all about me, for can’t you see
I blame me…….

'Blame' leads to 'guilt', which, from my own experience, can take a great toll on one's psyche. People should let go of 'blame'; it doesn't help.
