Men Do Cry<\/p>\n

I heard quite often “men don’t cry”
\n    Though no one ever told me why
\n    So when I fell and skinned a knee
\n    No one came to comfort me.<\/p>\n

And when some bully boy at school
\n    Would pull a prank so mean and cruel
\n    I’d quickly learn to turn and quip,
\n    “It doesn’t hurt” and bite my lip.<\/p>\n

So as I grew to reasoned years
\n    I learned to stifle any tears.
\n    Though “Be a big boy” it began,
\n    Quite soon I learned to “Be a man.”<\/p>\n

And I could play that stoic role
\n    While storm and tempest wracked my soul.
\n    No pain or setback could there be
\n    Could wrest one single tear from me.<\/p>\n

Then one long night I stood nearby
\n    And helplessly watched my son die.
\n    And quickly found to my surprise
\n    That all that tearless talk was lies.<\/p>\n

And still I cry and have no shame
\n    I cannot play that “big boy” game,
\n    And openly, without remorse
\n    I let my sorrow take its course.<\/p>\n

So those of you who can’t abide
\n    A man you’ve seen who’s often cried,
\n    Reach out to him with all your heart
\n    As one whose life’s been torn apart.<\/p>\n

For men do cry when they can see
\n    Their loss of immortality.
\n    And tears will come in endless streams
\n    When mindless fate destroys their dreams.<\/p>\n
