The Division Of Gravity

“After a while you learn
the subtle difference between
holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn that love
doesn’t mean leaning and company
doesn’t always 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 ahead
with the grace of woman,
not the grief of a child
and you learn to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans and futures
 have a way of falling down in 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 you really are strong
you really do have worth
and you learn and you learn with every goodbye, you learn"…
