Yesterday's heartaches fade away; and yet, memories tend to stay. Though love offers no guarantee, it's the key to setting hearts free. Clinging to unreconciled fears; you blame fate for your years of tears. And erect emotional walls; discouraging love when it calls. Your heart choreographs each move; as if love has something to prove. And as doubt denigrates your mood, you get defensive and unglued. When your chances drop to zero, you react, the wounded hero. Learn to give, as well as receive; be true to truth; do not deceive.
