Hold a hand don’t chain a soul
Love doesn’t mean leaning
company doesn’t mean security
Kisses aren’t contracts
presents aren’t promises
Accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes open
With the grace of an adult
not the grief of a child
Build all your roads on today
tomorrow’s road is too uncertain
Even sunshine burns
if you get too much
Plant your own garden
don’t wait for someone to bring you flowers
You can endure
You are really special
You do have worth
Live to learn
and know yourself
You then will learn to Live
