Everybody says time is the greatest healer
So I wait for the pain to lessen
Every minute seems like an era
And every second I wish it would end


I try so hard to hide all the scars
But unknowingly when anything touches me
Though the wound is no longer raw
Its the heart that starts to bleed

Comes the Dawn

After awhile you learn the subtle difference,

Between holding a hand and chaining a soul.

And you learn that love doesn't mean security.

And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts

And presents aren't promises.

And you begin to accept your defeats with you head up and your eyes open.

With the grace of maturity, not the grief of a child.

And you learn to build all 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 awhile 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 bring you flowers.

And you learn that you really can endure...

That you really are strong

And that you really do have worth.

And you learn and learn and learn...

With every goodbye you learn.

Looking Ahead!

A summer not one swallow makes

Nor a shadow brings the night

Yet happens, in life one sees

You want to give up without a fight



So what, if you never reached

The haven that you thought

It does not matter whatever happened

In spite of all the battles you fought



Despair not for the harbor lost

Your intent was true

There are so many oceans there

Why should you feel blue



Open your heart and mind

To the world out there

Columbus set out to find India

But America is here



Arise, wake up and shine

Cast your sails anew

Open up the maps

And set the rudder too



For, a summer not one swallow makes

Nor one shadow brings the night

You have everything in you

Why give up without a fight.
