comes the dawn -by. anonymous

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 contracts 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 your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain and futures have a way of falling mid-flight.

After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.

So you 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 learn ... with every goodbye you learn

Why?

Why look me in the eyes?
If you dont even see me

Why hold me in your arms?
If I'm not really safe there

Why make love?
If we don't have the ingredients

Why do you want me in the dark?
If I can bring so much light to your life

Why walk into my life?
If you already looking out the door

Why waste our time?
If it's so precious

When I'm alone

Pain in the pit of my stomach...
Started taking over my chest,
But i kept trying to push it away
...put the agony to rest.

Memories stop my breathe.
The tightness makes me feel like less.
Im having a conversation with myself
Cause i cant expect anything from anyone else.

I tell myself its temporary
But after so long the reality is quite contrary
I work to stay true to what ive always believed
One day we'll all be relieved.
