Honor
Struggles, yes, and pressures too
But honor still, most true
It is brave and dignified
No matter what abide
Transforming even foes
Embracing every worthy hope
Nothing takes its place
It is through many aches
And when we see what it obtains
Perceive its worth the pain
If traded then for something less
The loss, no grief express
