That Man (Part 1)

For You to Feel as You Feel Right

By Joshua Lino-da CostaPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I’m that man you never see,

That man that stays behind.

I’m that man that’s a mockery

Always hurt but forever kind.

I’m that man that hides away

That man you can not hear.

I’m that man who’ll never play

Always there but full of fear.

I’m that man that does not smile

That man who can not laugh.

I’m that man without a style

Always around but never enough.

I’m that man you may not know

That man you don’t want to be.

I’m that man who’ll try to show

That I can only be me.

The first of a long story of three poems
