Some of you may love me.  Others may hate me.  I may be joke around too much...I may laugh when things are not funny.  Sometimes I get angry when I shouldn't.  I hold in my anger...I hold back my tears.  I hide behind a smile and you don't know my fears.  I walk around head held high.  I hold your hand and pat your back when you need to cry.  I tell you it will all be okay.  I am your rock and your stone.  I stand tall and still where the grass has overgrown.  I wish I could let you know I need you too but that would be too vulnerable to you.  If only you could see what I hold inside.  If only I could let go of pride.  I ll keep on smiling day in and day out.  After all it isn't very powerful to sit and pout.
