Notes

After a while you learn

the subtle difference between

holding a hand and chaining a soul

And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning

And company doesn't always 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 ahead

with the grace of a woman

not the grief of a child

And you learn

to build all your roads on today

because tomorrow's ground is too

uncertain for plans

and futures have a way

of falling down in mid-flight

After a while you learn

that even sunshine burns if you get too much

so you plant your own garden

and decorate your own soul

instead of waiting

And you learn that you really can

endure

and you really are strong

and you really do have worth...
