Anyone can give up, its the easiest thing to do. But to hold it together, when everyone else would expect you to fall apart. That's tru strength.

The author's comments:
I've just been noticing alot of girls that throw around the word love, and use it so lightly when they don't even know what it means. I know what love is, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. and that verse also inspired me, and is used in this poem.
