Not Man Enough

This is me.

Nothing interesting.

I see the way you look at me.

Secretly I want it but keep it hidden in my heart.

I want nothing to do with you after you hurt me.

I am your father, you say.

I wonder how this could be if you continue to shrink my confidence.

Those words that leave your mouth...

It's inconvenient that I have to live this lie.

In bed I swell my eyes.

And cry.

I'm alone in this world you say.

But what is true is that in heaven I will lay.

When I am finally free, that's when I will smile.

When I figure out where to lay my head at night, then we will really see.

I once thought that you were big and tough but oops...I forgot.

You're just not man enough.
