comes the dawn
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 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,
And 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 for someone to bring you
Flowers

And you learn that you really can endure.......
That you are really strong,
And you really do have worth,
And you learn and learn
With every goodbye
You learn
