Gup&Bub

He had never really thought
That he would need more strength.
Strength is physical.
He is already beastly.

She did not think
That she would need any more strength.
Strength is emotional.
She is already smiling.

But it is true
That strength is both.
It is physical, it is emotional,
It is intense.

Strength does hide.
Strength does not think it needs to come out
Because other strength has already taken place.
Strength never knows just when it needs to take action.

Physical strength won't dry your tears.
Emotional strength won't heal your wounds.

She suddenly feels weak,
as though she can do nothing
She wants to be like the others
She does not want to be lazy.
She needs strength.

He suddenly feels weak,
as though he can do nothing.
He cannot be like the others.
He needs strength.

Challenges, insanity, fears,
Happiness, smiles, butterflies
Sweat, blood, and tears

Strength takes love.
Love takes strength.
