People underestimate
far too much
far too often
the pain experienced
by
a nice guy

The nice guy
has been hurt too
True
but that didn't stop him
from being
exactly who he is

Everyone
has different things to offer
and he knew this,
reminded himself
Every single time
anyone came close to him

That's why
when he says
"I understand"
believe him
when he says so
because
the number one thing
to insult any kind of nice guy
is to tell him
"No, you don't"
