Why The Strong Man Cries Poem by Lance K...

Patiently watching and waiting as the sky dies
away into the world I come again to fly
as today's tomorrow I will try
to fight inch by inch to get to you
this is why the strong man cries

Getting pushed down only to get back up again
a lesson learned to never forget
tis always to try and never regret
passed on from generation
only to come back five foe
this is why the strong man cries

Though I've tried to comfort you
every attempt failed with residue
of all the feelings we shared
nothing in the world can compare
but, fatly I fail and fall, my loves still goes on
if it matters I will always be fond
this is why the strong man cries

You look beautiful with your hands upon your chest
propped without a hair out of place as it rests
for eternal sleep I can never bear
for Christ I ask to repair
this broken body
and soul

I can never say goodbye, I can never let go
I can not express all the feeling I know
to say I love you so.
So with a farewell I bid you a due
my friend, my soul I'll never let you go
as I sit upon this stone crying with a feist
only in comfort that your flying with Christ
This is why the strong man cries.

Now back from oversees and free
your memories still pulsate through me,
as I marry I will never forget
the love you showed me that I couldn't show back, in regret
I still love you as I age as I share my love with another
I hope you receive this because we will never meet
for I have cheated and sinned
my mind and soul will be thrown in the bin
along with my sins.

Torn and shaken for the medicine tower
waiting upon my final hour
I will still love you
always
but I now travel and go
body and mind towed
for my savior has grasped me
and cleansed me for a fate undreamed of
as we meet I now realize the ones I left behind
now devastated of my last action
I now see all the compaction
I have made on the ones I left
I now see our love has grown apart
split into pieces like art

I still care and love you
but, with replies
all I can say this is why the strong man cries.
