The Man The Child Poem by clay scott

im goin insane for these years i blame i grew up
a child inside a man with trimbleing hands a fear
i hold within how i never let anyone in the lights
grow dim my soul caves in my heart is innocent broken
like glass so many things shown in the past a man
hideing from the world gives life no shape when the
child inside is scared of fate how can you love when
its a mistake choices a man has to make tears never
seen through his eyes only because its the boy that cries
like a stone i stand for i know no pain my emotions stay locked
away in a secret place a wall this child has made weakens
me to stand so strong begets my life to push people away
my personal striff my hidden world is a beautiful place
this garden of eden i have shaped thats where i hide my
escape a boy so knowing walks my life in a place
where love never fades as the man carries the burden
of a heavy pace his life could end and never change
only the boys sins would be washed away
