After a while, one learns a difference
between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
Love doesn't mean leaning,
that company doesn't mean security.
Kisses aren't contracts,
and presents aren't promises.
With a head held high, with eyes wide open,
with the grace of an adult,
learning to build all paths based on today,
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain.
After a while, you learn that even sunshine can burn.
Don't wait for someone to bring you flowers,
plant your own garden - decorate your own soul.
Learning that you really are strong,
that you really are of worth.
