A Palette of Feelings

Even the mighty fall

Everyone looks up at the strong
Very bright, they are a star
Ever ready to rend help
Never put a show of weakness

Their hearts but are most vulnerable
Having never prepared to defend
Emotions that rattle their core

Might, their false vest
In it rests their ego and trust
Get entangled in an emotional web
Have no idea how to get out
Tarry with a losing hope
Yearning help, but will not ask

Fears their image to shatter
All's well they pretend
Lose their mind
Lose their life
