After awhile 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 ahead
with the grace of a woman, strength of a man
not the grief of a child.
And you learn
to build all your roads today becuase tomorrow's
ground is too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight
After awhile you learn
that even sunshine burns if you ask too much
so 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 really are strong
and you really do have worth
And you learn, and you learn
with every good-bye you learn
