I Do Pity ......

An anger that rages inside 
I find it hard to run and hide 
A voice is burning to become fire
My cries are no longer through silence
I do not hide with shame as my pride is taken
I am not the same from that day
To long I sat and took the pain 
You have no idea how those words destroyed 
I built myself into a bubble which was my void
How I sat and cried as the words became the weapons
To my deepest core that was how you adored 
My smiles, you never noticed that the smiles lied
I do not hate I do not love I do not like
I do pity....  
I would even say I feared as the room turned red
A panic sends shivers that lost my words 
A child from me you disguard
His tiny hand his loving heart his smile 
An evil in you runs through you
As the years go by you will turn old 
A lonelyness will be for you to discover
As for you ,there will be no understanding 
Maybe one day you will wish you held that tiny hand 
Only then will you truely understand what it is to be a man....

I agree that the last two lines says so much...Some men and some women should never have become parents for they are not parent material...Keep the creative pen flowing..Sara
