Sean Matthews Poet Rhyme

Takes Courage To Cry

Taught while becoming a man,
to hold back the sadness, one would sadly feel.
Yet there is only so much, a person can hold,
especially, when the pain, inside is for real.

While putting forth, a false positive look,
where does all the pain inside, then go.
Afraid to release the pain, tighten like a vise,
unwilling, to let the people, who care, to then know.

With pressure building, then whom is protected,
during the posing and replying, of such a lie.
Eventually, all would know the truth,
for the pain, one feels, will not, let one deny.

 So, why wait , till all comes, crashing down, because, 
of fear, of what others, may see through, each eye.
Big becomes a man, who shows, his true heart, 
who is then able, to take the courage, to cry.
