Hurt parade on my heart
For few of recent statements
I watched the floats go by
but in silence.

I kept my reaction
Didn't wish to prolong...
to spare you from feeling bad
I stood the heat and bore the Weight

All I said during...was
"I'm tired"
have you listened?
I gave you both ear

Put aside my opinion....mostly
Saw how best to accommodate your desires
But fail in my endeavor to...

Weak and insignificant
Frail and a failure
Ineffective and beat
This old flag hang its head

How does bliss exist
If empty is the vessel?
How is support possible
When strength isn't visible?

I love you from soft heart
From heart, I know I'm soft
I desire your happiness
But I fail I will never grant you such...

So I hide behind words
Making my view with sentences
Hoping you hear the truth,
And see the man I am in them
