Grieving As A Man

It has to be so painful

To be a man and in grief.

Since to be a man you musn't cry,

So your pain can't have relief.

It is probably difficult

To hold your head up high.

In front of friends and family

While I stay in our room and hide.

You watch me shed my tears at night,

But you don't also break.

Instead you wipe my Falling tears,

And than stay strong just for my sake.

It must be so hard

To pretend like he's happy each day.

I promise you can break down as well;

I will be there to make sure you're okay.

It must be so painful

With everything he's going through.

All while he keeps on smiling,

But he lost our baby too.
