After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
And you learn that love does not mean leaning and company does not mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses are not contracts and presents are not promises.
And you begin to accept rejection with your head up and your eyes clear, with the grace
of an adult, not the heartache of a child.
And you learn to build your life on now, because tomorrow is too uncertain.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
Plant your own garden and decorate your soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And after a while you learn that you really have infinite worth.
