Where can I go to hide out of sight
So no one will witness the tears I suppress?
Tears so unmanly, exhibits of shame,
Not meant for viewing in open display.
Keep me in shadows away from the light.
Spare me the duty, the need to confess.
Finding a scapegoat to shoulder the blame.
Wanting so desperately to get away.
Reasons aplenty abound for such flight,
Though reason of common sense loudly protest.
No one can understand what’s in a game
Where everyone loses who chooses to play.
Don’t give me grief, for I have the right.
I’m a participant, not just your guest.
The hurting will end and I will lay claim
To the beautiful prospect of a new day.
