A man's silent

They say a man must stand so tall,

Hold the world though he might fall,

Carry dreams that no one sees,

Hide his pain behind the breeze.

He builds a home with calloused hands,

But sometimes love won’t understand…

A man will cry where no one knows,

Carry the fire through the cold,

Fighting storms, yet he won’t bend,

Praying the night will turn to friend.

But when his heart is torn in two,

Who will stand and see him through?

For even steel can break apart,

A man still bleeds inside his heart.

After vows, the weight begins,

Life is heavy, hope wears thin,

If his woman don’t see his fight,

He’s alone through endless nights.

Silent wars no one can name,

Still he loves, through loss and pain…

Don’t forget he’s only flesh,

Dreams can tire, souls can stretch,

Appreciation is a seed,

Love is the water men still need.

A man will cry where no one knows,

Carry the fire through the cold,

Fighting storms, yet he won’t bend,

Praying the night will turn to friend.

But when his heart is torn in two,

Who will stand and see him through?

For even steel can break apart,

A man still bleeds inside his heart.
