Comes the Dawn...

After awhile you begin to learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and changing
a soul....
And you learn that love doesn`t mean leaning,
and company doesn`t mean security.
You begin to learn that kisses arent contracts
and presents arent promises.
And you begin to accept your defeats, with your head held high and your eyes open,
with the grace of a woman, not the greif of a child.
And you learn to build all your roads on today,
because tomorrows grounds are too uncertain for plans.
And futures have a way of falling down mid-flight.
After awhile you learn,
That even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So plant your own garden
and decorate your own soul,
Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you will learn you can endure....
That you really are strong.
And you really do have worth.
And you learn and learn...
With every goodbye you learn.
