After a while ...

After a while 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 always 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 your head up and eyes ahead

With the grace of a woman

Not the grief of a child

And you learn 

To build all your roads on today 

Because tomorrows ground is too uncertain 

Is too uncertain for plans

And futures have a way 

Of falling down in mid flight 

After a while 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 are really strong 

And you really do have worth

And you learn and you learn

With every good bye you learn.

Do soul mates exist??
Or are we just a bunch  of people who are conditioned to believe in the concept of codependence and hence convince ourselves that they do?
Whos to say that a connection once felt between 2 individuals is going to be a sustained connection, or should we just take comfort in the fact that feelings just like everything else in the world are also momentary, and all we do is convince ourselves either for or against.
