Comes the Dawn
by: unknown

After a while you learn the suttle differnce
between holding and chaining a soul.
And you learn that love doesn't mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contract
and presents aren't promises.
And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open
with the grace of a woman not the grief of a child.
And you learn to build all your roads today
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain.
And futures have a way of changing in mid flight.
And after a while you learn that even shineshine burns you if you get too much.
So you plant your own garden and cultivate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really are strong and you really do have worth.
And you learn and you learn
with every goodbye ..... you learn.
