I'm Just A Guy

Some poetry comes from the mind; some comes from life. And some just stand and speak for themselves.

I’m Just A Guy

I am just a guy
I laugh I hurt
I smile and cry

I won’t apologize

Hopeless romantic
Foolish some say
You can take your pick

I won’t apologize

No one at my side
Dancing through life
With my stubborn pride

I won’t apologize

Just like everyone
Here all alone
Looking for someone

I won’t apologize

Accept what you can
Who I may be
Whatever I am

I won’t apologize

Look deeper to see
What beats inside
Notice the real me

I won’t apologize

My heart on my sleeve
Prayer on my lips
Just trust and believe

I won’t apologize

I am just a guy
I laugh I hurt
I smile and cry


I won’t apologize

Eyes that open
            See
            Wonder
            Eyes that are searching
Eyes that question
            Plead
            Demand
            Eyes that are misunderstood
Eyes that spark
            Flash
            Burn
            Eyes that are jaded
Eyes that pry
            Scold
            Accuse
            Eyes that are troubled
Eyes that speak
            Curse
            Lie
            Eyes that are lost
Eyes that long
            Hope
            Hurt
            Eyes that are ignored
Eyes that fear
            Hide
            Pray
            Eyes that are forgotten
Eyes that remember
            Cry
            Dim
            Eyes that are closed
