Join GayCities, the fun way to discover the world

After a while you learn the subtle differences 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 being to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open with the strength of a man not the grief of a child, And you begin to build your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain, And future plans have a way of falling down 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 really are strong and that you really have worth. And you learn, and you learn with every shared moment you learn. Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option.
