[bodytext] => The man who never cried A small boy in a world without love A mother who loved as much as she could The boy never wanted the pain the man inflicted Like a wounded animal, the wounds he licked Until he grew older the weapons he flicked Easy come easy go, no love or mercy inside As a boy to the woods he would run and hide Alone with nature no-one knew he was there He only wanted someone to care He made a bed so deep, and buried himself with leaves He was safe now, safe to breathe Within himself he hid the pain, no tears no gain He had to go back to protect his mother from the man who reined Years later the boy now sixteen, still the memories of a child Looking back the boy with no tears, just wild His stepdad used to say be a man, take the pain No pain no gain One faithful night the boy snapped and they came to blows How his stepdad ended up in intensive care who knows. He had to protect his mum from the violence she had endured Their life now was finally cured The boy grew up into a man, a kind and humorous man Those he loved and respected he cared for like his mam The dark side no-one wanted to unleash Like beauty and the beast Always on the defensive afraid of getting close Afraid he would be hurt once more, distant like the coast I knew the man who never cried, he is in my heart and soul Part of him I could never hold His daughter asked me why dad never weeps He hurts on the inside his pain is deep Standing by his graveside I held his daughter close as tears bedimmed our eyes For the man who never cried So sad so strange the days that are no more To my beautiful friend Paul May the angels Care for you Love Angelxxxx [comments] => 4 [counter] => 220 [topic] => 2 [informant] => sweetangeluk [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
