Strength

Strength
Where does it come from?
Laughter
With tears
Worry
You won’t make it next time
Sadness
You can’t handle the pain
Sorrow
I can’t take things for you

Strength
Where did it all go?
Laughter
Gives lines
Worry
Creates panic on my face
Sadness
Shows in our eyes
Sorrow
Clouds our hearts and minds
Strength
We have so much together.
