~ A mans tears `

A mans tears.........


A mans tears can mean so much
We really ought’ to learn
No need to talk, no need to touch
And watch our tables turn
So often, we will feel the pain
And hide behind a front,
When really, tears are like the rain
To fall is what they want.


So strong we seem, yes this is true
Our boots befriend work residue..
The hard fought days show on our hands
Our nails consist of dirt and sand.


But let that not be like your heart
Because of your routine
For a man who’s humble and is smart
Will cry to reach his dreams.


I used to try and hold it in
You know, just shake it off
But that only left me cold within
Alone, and feeling lost.


Till one day it did hit my cheek
So warm, this cant be rain
I didn’t move, I didn’t speak
Just let my sorrows drain.
Thank you God
for showing me how to cry.
