The Darkened Room Poem by louis rams

The darkened room

They say a man is not supposed to cry, to me I know that's a lie.
So many times I sat in the room , in the darkness full of gloom
The pressures are building up in my chest
I pray to GOD for a rest.
There are problems that we must endure
But we make it, that's for sure.
Then from your prayers you feel a sense of relief
As he takes away all your grief, and you see an aura of light
In the corner of the room, as he takes away the gloom.
Yet because I am a man I am not supposed to cry
Just reading the bible don't you cry?
