Guilt, sorrow or obligation are not
love or compatibility; a soul mate
isn't there just to make you happy;
these things cannot tell you where
your true self lies; it is only in the
courage to stand up for yourself
that you will learn to live as the
person you were meant to be

It is wrong to take the gifts of another
under false pretenses; the sooner
you know the better off you will be;
only true understanding opens the
door to your life; once you learn to
live alone, you can begin to share
your life; the decision to share your
life must be made from strength

The decisions of confusion will cause
endless turmoil; know who you are
and then you will know what you can
give; make your decisions knowing
your true self; shed the desires that
others have for your life; it may be
that their wishes come from their
weakness

Always remember the things you've
wanted to be and take them to heart;
that is who you are; find that person;
you are never to old; it is never too late;
find that person; it is inside you because
you remember all your dreams; it is
time to live; find that person, it is you
