A Warrior's Tears

When a warrior has tears,
He doesn't let them fall.
He holds them inside,
And hides them from all.

For everyone knows,
If a warrior's tears ever fell,
His heart would be open,
And everyone could tell.

His weaknesses would be read
Just like an open book.
As if there was a sign saying,
"Hey, come have a look!"

A warrior cries with no one
Not even with him alone.
For though he's by himself,
The tears make an awful tone.

I wish that it were different.
I wish it were not so.
For a warrior's tears are often there.
Especially when they do not show.
