Men Do Cry........................... I heard quite often men dont cry though no one ever told me why So when I fell and skinned a knee, no one came by to comfort me. And when some bully-boy at school would pull a prank so mean and cruel Id quickly learn to turn and quip, It doesnt hurt, and bite my lip. So as I grew to reasoned years, I learned to stifle my tears. Though Be a big boy it began, quite soon I learned to Be a man. And I could play that stoic role while storm and tempest wracked my soul. No pain or setback could there be could wrest one single tear from me. Then one long night I stood nearby and helplessly watched my son die. And quickly found, to my surprise, that all that tearless talk was lies. And still I cry, and have no shame, I can not play that big boy game. And openly, without remorse, I let my sorrow take its course. So those of you who cant abide a man youve seen whos often cried, reach out to him with all your heart as one whose lifes been torn apart. For men do cry when they can see their loss of immortality. And tears will come in endless streams when mindless fate destroys their dreams
