I'v learned
that you shouldn't always leave
loved ones withoutloving words,
it may be the last time you see them.
I'v learned
that the people you care most about in life
are taken from you too soon.
I'v learned
that you can't make someone love you,
all you can do is
be someone who can be loved.
the rest is up to them.
I'v learned
that sometimes when I'm angry
I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me
the right to be cruel.
I'v learned
that even when you think
you have no more to give,
when afriend cries out to you,
you will find the strength to help
I'v learned
that it takes years to build up trust,
and only seconds to destroy it.
I'v learned
that it's not what you have in your life
but who you have in your life that counts.
I'v learned
that learning to forgive takes practice.
I'v learned
that there are people who love you dearly,
but just don't know how to show it.
AND LAST
I'v learned
that it's taking me long time
to be the person I want to be.
