Unshed Tears
Salty liquid sliding down
One side for a man I've never known
The other for my Daddy
The tears he will hold back
The one's he refuses to shed for himself
For the pain he feels
Loss he won't acknowledge
Constricted chest- This for his he pushes back down
Keep breathing in and out
The show of life must go on
No need to cry-Let it show
So, I shed tears for you, for your loss, your pain
I will feel it for you
The man you are-Must always stay strong
One side for a man I've never known
The other for my Daddy
The tears he will hold back
The one's he refuses to shed for himself
For the pain he feels
Loss he won't acknowledge
Constricted chest- This for his he pushes back down
Keep breathing in and out
The show of life must go on
No need to cry-Let it show
So, I shed tears for you, for your loss, your pain
I will feel it for you
The man you are-Must always stay strong
