let it burn, suffering teaches the soul; let it grow, love nourishes the heart.

Peace can only last so long,

Before it’s lost with a wrong,

If you keep this knowledge in mind,

Peace shall be far easier to find,

And much harder to be lost,

Yet keeping peace has its cost,

You must make sacrifices day after day,

Some hard, some easy, some won’t go away,

But you alone choose where you go,

Keep the peace or not, the world may never know.
