I’ve learned my lessons
To live boldly
To love fiercely
To never miss a dose
To never leave my chap stick
In the car on a
Sunny day in Texas
To do my hair while its wet
To not trust them when they say
“you’re beautiful”
To be the only one who holds my heart
To laugh at anything funny
To get enough sleep
And not procrastinate
Then tell me
If I have my lessons learned
Why am I still here
With sadness in my lungs
A missed dosage in my brain
Awake in the early morning that
Still could be called night
If my lessons are learned
Why am I here doing this
Listening to the silence
As my chap-stick sits
Abandoned in the car
Awaiting its imminent
Demise when the Texas sun
Will surly rise
If my lessons are learned
Why haven’t I learned?
