I have learned to move on
To not regret
To take my chances
To live my life
I have learned to not forget
But yet to forgive
I have learned to meet life at its biggest risks
I have learned how to play the game
To breath
To walk
To run
To play
To fight my battles
To stand up
To believe
To believe in what I believe in
And to trust its right
I have learned how to trust
I have learned how to love
I have learned to make my mistakes
And use them to help me live
I have learned to try
To dream
To succeed
To wish
To hope
I have learned from you to just be free
To spread my wings
3,2,1
Jump
I have learned
Everything
From you
I have learned that once I speard my winds
I cant just hope to fly
But to TRY to fly
To flap these wings
To fly away
To fly away NOT to the end
Or to the middle
But to the start
The next start
The next chapter
To learn the rest of the book
This book we call life
I have learned to not speed by
To take my time
To stop andsmell the roses
To gaze at the moon
To reach for the stars
To lean on a friend
To ask for help
I have learned to basically just do what I want
I may hit a few bumps
Catch a few bruises along the way
But those are mistakes
And risks
I have learned to take
I have learned all this from you
Everything from you.

This was inspired by my family, because of everything they have taught me, if it wasnt for them I would know half the things I do know. So I just like to say thank you to every one who has every taught me anything.
