for all us fathers who has lost a son/daughter

It must be very difficult
To be a man in grief
Since “Men don’t cry”; and “Men are Strong”
No tears can bring relief
It must be very difficult
to stand up to the test
And field calls and visitors
So she can get some rest
They always ask if she’s all right
and what she’s going through
But seldom take his hand and ask
My friend, but how are you?
He hears her crying in the night
and thinks his heart will break
He dries her tears and comforts her,
But ’stays strong’ for her sake.
It must be very difficult
to start each day anew
And try to be so very brave
He lost his baby too.
