After a while
one learns the subtle difference
between holding a hand
and chain a soul
and one learns that love
does not mean to lie down
and a company does not mean security
and one employs to learn
that kisses are not contacts
and the gifts are not promises
and one employs to accept their defeats
with the high head and the open eyes
and one learns to build
all his ways in today
because the land of tomorrow
it's too much in insurance for plan
and futures have a way of falling
in the middle
and after a while one learns
that if it's too much until the heat of the sun burns
and that one plants his own garden
and decorates his own soul
instead of waiting for someone to bring flowers
and you learn that you can really stand
that one really is strong
that one really is worth
and one learns and learns
and with each one you learn
