To Love is to Live,
and to Live is to Suffer.
To Suffer is to become Strong,
and to be Strong is to Survive.

To Survive is to Stand in The End.

I Will Love,
and I Will Live.
I Will Suffer,
and I Will be Strong.
I Will Survive,

and in The End, I Will Stand

" Understanding is more valuable than diamonds. If you can understand me, Then you are a very rich person. "

TY!

This was really good! I had to read it over and over again to really let it sink in. Tells me to stand up for what you believe in, because you don't live forever. You wrote it well!

"Damn right," is right!  Kudos to you for being  the first I've met to say this. I agree totally.  And what a way to put it!

You are right, I know the feeling of love after death and it isn't easy. The poem was excellent.
