I Have Learned

I have learned to live
And not to die
Will always give
Don’t have to try

I have learned to love
And not to hate
Just rise above
It’s not to late

I have learned to forgive
And to forget
Do you love to live?
Yes I do “you bet”

I have learned to work
And not be still
Look at my smirk
You’ll get a chill

I have learned a lot
In my long days
And I have taught
In many ways
