Acting the Part

I always hated the sound of a man crying.

It was always the sound that gave me a feeling that I am in great danger.

Of course, to many others this is nothing major.

But a man is suppose to be the hero;
A man is suppose to be fearless,

To never let anyone see that he too, can
            break

When a man weeps it is as if there are no more solutions.

        Game over.

But how am I suppose to feel when it is he, himself, the one with the malevolent intentions, shedding those tears?

-

Does this mean he is broken?
        Or is this all an act?

There is no crime upon us as the dynamic duo

Though, there was
  for one of us.

In my case

I was confused.

He gently let tears flow,

As I layed below

        Fear

Crept onto my face

I'm remembering my place.

My flower,

       Devoured

My heart,

      Over powered

His  clutch

Oh!

      his
          clutch..

I think I've had enough.

Without a thought, I had awaken from my years of slumber

Unaware of the reality I took place in,

I barked.

Never once have I before but, as soon as I did,
  
         Tears

Ones that were not mine, streamed down my cheeks.

      "Tell me truth"

Heavy breaths are escaping,

The beast I am facing

      DOOMED!

Such a scene I had already known was bound to happen.

        Why is that?

And,

Why
 
          Must

  He

 
  Rain?

A beautiful lie that makes the audience go wild
For they have yet to discover the pure souls you have encountered.

I was not the first and perhaps not the last

As usual time seemed to go by so fast,
I'm left now with only a chant;

    "I feared a man's cries,
   But those were his lies,
  As our relationship dies

  We simply ran out of time."

Disgustingly his words were quite believable

Leaving me once again defeatable.

For he knows I am a fool

       He knows

I bury my woes to stop the voices in my head from keeping darkness to creep just before bed

And right on the spot !

I fell apart
As you spun your straw of golden lies

-
"Keep

   
        it

    

           together"

It echoes in my mind.

Away from my daze I see the truth..

You

were playing a dangerous game

   Game over: You lose

From the moment you let those tears escape,

   You were not broken..

   And just like that!
        *SNAP*

  you were easily forgotten.
