A Sad Clown
Boys don’t cry…

This is a poem I wrote August 18, 2010. It’s kind of old but I hope you enjoy.

Boys don’t cry When I feel the moisture in my eyes I am quick to wipe them dry ‘Cause boys don’t cry

What am I to do when I wanna weep As My sadness suppresses all my sleep But boys can’t cry

The idea of me breaking down Is very blatant now My emotions are hard to bury down But I have to because boys don’t cry

I have this great fear of Being in public and beginning to tear up ‘Cause I always heard that boys need to be tough ‘Cause boys don’t cry

As I sat enduring the long ache The kind only found after a heart break So I sit sorrowful with self pity And think to my self “boys don’t cry”

So passionatly I persipitate privately In the only place possible Into my pillow ‘Cause boys don’t cry but men sure do
