Why We Are Strong

Discipline in rage
Brings the pain and places blame
Pain on the inexperienced,
Blame on the Protector;
A job often taken for granted.
The stronger were made to shield those too small,
To be a wall against the storms.
Instead, the stronger prove they are,
By stepping on the weaker ones.
