Men Don'T Talk Poem by Bob Gibson

Men Don'T Talk

Rating: 4.3


Men don't talk' when their hearts are broken
Men don't talk' not a word is spoken
the shutters come down and they just regress
Inside it hurts, such emptiness!

They feel pain, of a love gone wrong
Loves an old familiar song
They need the space to work things out
Its not their way to scream and shout

The pain is there, their fists are clenched
Body is shaking, heart is wrenched
What his choice? its his fate!
He goes it alone, he can't tell a mate!

A delicate topic for many, and not just men.. I know many woman who would rather drown silently in their tears, then to ever speak of such a weakness. As I see it.. Strength comes from within, and it takes far more to shed a tear, than it does to strike another.. A great read.. and alot of food for thought Wendy :)

Good to see the result of hurt or pain from the other side of the gender table Bob - - - and I appreciate knowing this - - - - I had guessed it of course, but it helps in relationships and thanks for touching on this delicate subject which has caused many a misunderstanding........ a good write........ from Fay with a 10 xx

This poem is definitly true. We never do, and when we do it's only for a minute or two.
