Fallin’ deep in silence

(A poem inspired by Alicia Keys song titles)

In a world that’s So Simple, yet feels so Heavy,
We walk with Un-thinkable weight, still pretending to be steady.
Fallin’ deep in silence, but no one hears the call,
With Tears Always Win, though we hide them all.

We long for a Lesson Learned in each day that we face,
Seeking The Cure for the pain we erase.
Through the Empire State of Mind, we chase strength and pride,
But beneath the surface, there’s worth inside.

A Brand New Me, we wish to emerge,
Yet Try Sleeping With a Broken Heart still surges.
The Diary we hold is silent and sealed,
But deep within, we hope to be healed.

Love Looks Better when we learn to be kind,
Not just to others, but to our own mind.
With an Underdogs as guides,
Men can rise, embracing their emotional tides.
