Poem: It Must Be Difficult To Be A Man In Grief

It must be very difficult To be a Man in Grief
Since "Men don't cry"; and "Men are strong" No tears can bring relief.

It must be very difficult to stand up to the test,
Screen calls and visitors, So she can get some rest.

They always ask if she's alright
But seldom take his hand and ask...
My friend, but how are you?

He hears her crying in the night and thinks his heart will break.
He dries her tears and comforts her, But 'stays strong' for her sake.

It must be very difficult to start each day brand new
And try to be so very brave, when he lost his child too
