Suffer Nobly

Suffer nobly

As you will always be judged

On your reaction to stress

Not the stress you are under

Suffer with grace

Dignity

Beauty

Be enguard

As they will try

To steal

These away too

Endure

With courage

Hold your head high

Befriend brave

Let it fill

Your heart

Find it

In yourself

To trudge on

Over that rise

Rise above

And rise

With your burdens

As they look

They judge

“Oh, It’s OK. They suffered nobly”

Don’t expect justice

The naked truth

Is to much

For many eye’s

To bear

Or care

When all hope is lost

In this forest

They call life

Create

Your own path

Power on

Don’t let those bastards win

And defiantly

Don’t let them in

Follow your path

Not the adds on TV

Reality

Is what there keeping from you

But once again

That ugly

Naked truth
