thought 4
After a while you learn the subtle difference, between holding a hand and chaining a soul
And you learn that love does not mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises and you begin to accept your defeats.
With your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of a woman not the grief of a child.
And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrows ground is uncertain.
And futures have a way of falling down in midflight
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So you plant your own gardens and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you can endure, that you really are strong and you really do have worth, you learn and learn some more.
With every good bye you learn
