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 are not promises. And you begin to accept your defeats with your eyes open and your head held high. 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. So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, and stop 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. Anonymous |
