POA
Over the years you experience
That holding hands is not the same as
fascinating a soul.
That Love doesn’t mean to lean on someones shoulder.
You learn that kisses are not contracts,
That presents are not promises.
You begin
to carry defeats with your head held high
and accept them with open eyes
and
the dignity of awakening.
You begin to count your path on “TODAY”
As the TOMORROW is illusive
Decorate your soul with flowers by yourself
instead of waiting
that others will bread a chaplet for you.
For that is the way you can bear up
and beinig strong
if you be aware
that you have your own VALUE.
