Welcome to Becky's Angels
Family Pictures
To My Friends
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 leaning
And company 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 the grace of a woman
not the grief of a child,
And 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 midflight.
After awhile, you learn that sunshine burns
if you get too much.
So you plant your 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 are really strong.
And you really do have worth.
And you learn and learn....
With every goodbye, you learn.
