Suffering is inevitable,
Essential to the way we grow.
Forcing you to dig down deep,
Pleasures you are soon to reap.
Refining you're inner strength,
Transcending to a place you're meant,
To be and use the lessons learned,
Knowing its a life you've earned.
Way beyond the minds conception,
Lives a life that's you're perfection,
Better than you ever thought,
In return for all you've fought,
Payment for the strength and tears,
As you've conquered all your fears,
Building up your daily armor,
Forced upon for you to harbor,
Fortitude with attitude,
Bring upon an interlude,
Pause, think and recollect,
Learning most in retrospect,
Evolving to a higher self,
Bionic with grace and stealth,
Grateful for my path to life,
Love wrapped up disguised as strife,
I live, I love, I learn, I grow,
I break, I fall, I reap, I sew.
