Beneath The Surface

   
these    
   
words here    
   
are not meant to    
   
undress you  
   
they are meant to    
   
unmask you  
   
...  
   
cuz as a man    
   
i can't even begin    
   
to imagine  
   
all the things    
 
swirling in your mind  
   
heavy on your mind  
 
...  
 
the things  
   
you gracefully    
   
hold together  
   
with a simple smile  
   
...  
   
the weight    
   
you must carry daily    
   
upon    
   
your cheek bones  
   
...  
   
how you find    
   
the strength    
   
put your face together    
   
to face    
   
yet another day  
   
...  
   
just want you  
   
to know  
   
i see you  
   
and  
   
i admire you
