I wish to cry but I don't
know why, the feelings
are building to the point
of eyes watering like a
dam that holds them back.

My emotions are letting me
down, I know the flood is
coming, but I don't wish to cry.

I keep the emotion in, I will
not give in. I wish to cry to
let my emotions be free, but
I am a man and men don't
cry in front of others or privately.
