Everyone thinks he's tough.
They think that since he's a boy, that he doesn't cry when things get rough.
Well he does.
He cries because he misses you.
He cries because he couldn't do everything you wanted him to.
He cries at night, and wipes his eyes with the covers.
He cries because he sees you holding the hands of others.
Does this make him any less of a man?
Or is showing emotion just his way of letting you go.
