A Humbled Man.

As I walk a humbled mans walk I find I am alone,
 in others I see false smiles and laughter untrue
 to busy to see in front of them to angry to know
To walk a humbled mans walk is shown,
 hope...drenched in wines and drinks of despair
 dreams ...covered and forgotten for no one stands still
Walk a humbled mans walk set your own tone,
 love that slips away because we for got what we have
 romance gone as you let go of her hand
Walking a humbled mans walk is what we should own,
 you walk away from her, the kids, responsibility
 to laugh with them, her, and not rise to the challenge
To walk a humbled mans walk isn't written in stone,
 get up after you fall take on all that is given
 your journey is not a mistake it is yours to fix and make
I walk a humbled mans walk for this man has grown,
 two kids and a wife who helped me to this point
 acceptance to all that comes my way good or bad
As I walk a humbled mans walk I see so much unknown,
 the beauty of a smile the meaning in a heart beat
 to see seasons and the change of life hear every thing
A humbled mans walk isn't filled with testastaron,
 it's with love, wisdom and all that makes the world go round
 with no masks no mirrors its knowing who you really are
Walk a humbled mans walk and you will find your self home.
