"Everything in life is temporary because everything changes, that's why it takes great courage to love, knowing it might end at anytime but having the faith that it will last forever."
The Dawning
After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and changing a soul, and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning, and company doesn't mean security.
You begin to understand that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises. You begin to accept your defeat with your head held high and your eyes wide open.
You begin to build 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 come and bring you flowers.
And, you learn that you really can endure, that you really have the worth and really are strong. And you learn, and you learn, with every goodbye you learn.
Forever
Maybe someday I'll be lucky enough
To hold you in my arms,
Rather than just in my mind.
Maybe someday I'll trade in empty dreams,
For the thrill of one night's memories.
And the cold of the world,
Will be shattered by your warmth.
-Aww..
