I’ve learned to understand that…

A prohibitive degree of inner freedom –

Not a caprice but a strain.

Up to the end, it will remain!

 

I’ve learned to understand that….

The tales we dream up

We write out of our heads.

And…. we should cherish that!

 

I’ve learned to break up the rules,

So that no one should be hurt.

Using my tools,

I would like to avoid the dirt.

 

I’ve learned to believe that…

There are no ideal relations.

They can be sometimes  brief,

Very often with frustration.

 

I’ve learned to feel that….

Striving for harmony I love disharmony.

Loving in everything the truth

The lies are sometimes soothing.

 

I’ve learned to be patient,

Though not everyone knows it.

It’s better to be absent

Than to throw a stone into a shit.

 

I've learned not to be afraid of any competition,

There is only right or wrong choice,

There is only someone's ambition,

There is only a strong or weak voice.

 

I’ve learned to understand that…

 Love can't be found where it doesn't exist,

 Love can't be hidden where it is.

 A true love you can persist.

 

  I've learned to accept that...

I feel comfortable and relaxed,

If someone rules the most,

Only when I want it myself and it is dosed.

 

I've learned not to argue

But hold my point of view.
