Tears

Tears shed for those loves.

Which go out of a mans life.

Crying for things that move.

We must adjourn  and carry the grief.

 

Tender moments for which we are unable to express.

For things that should have been confessed.

To loves that are history and now are gone.

That leaves the man here all alone.

 

To face courage he must search deep inside.

And the emotions that cause pain, override.

Crying hard deep in his mind.

For the strength to ease the pain that’s what he must find

men alone with feelings over rid

it's a hard life, and alone, when we must stand up and be men in the face of our grief and loss. Well expressed. I think it could use a little editing, especially the first line second stanza and that last line are a bit clunky which is a pity, it takes away from the effect of the piece. cheers, Jess
