this is not my poem.. i don't know who wrote it, but it was on some artwork i bought froma hippy on Christmas Eve in Boulder once.


Strength of a Woman

After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul. You learn that love does no mean leaving and company does not mean security.

You begin to understand that kisses are non contracts and presents are not promises. You begin to accept your defeats with your head held high and your eyes wide open, with the grace of a woman and not the grief of a child.

You learn to build roads on today, for tomorrows grounds are too uncertain for plans and futures have a way of falling mid-flight.

After a while you learn 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 your flowers.

You learn you really can endure and you really do have worth. and you learn and you learn with every goodbye, you learn.

    i love you too and the reason why is because we have known each other many many other times before and we are waiting to get together again. we knew this when we were kids,

    its easy to remember when your young and pure.
