you can relate,,,,

after a while, you learn the subtle difference
between holding a hand 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 an adult, not the grief of a child,
you learn to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans,
after a while you learn that even sunshine burns,
if you get 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...!!!
