The Man
It's hard to describe how I feel right now
I want to explain it but I don't know how
I can't believe its come to this
it's our world, not just his
no matter how hard we try
the man can never hear us cry
we could scream and yell
but he is in his heaven while we're in our hell
The little boy wants his acceptance
but the man keeps his distance
the little boy has so many "whys?"
but the man won't open his eyes
The little girl just wants her dad
but the man doesn't understand
the little girl just wants to be kissed and hugged
but all the man does is shrug
The woman just wants him
But the light is getting dim
She loves him with all her heart
But the man keeps tearing it apart
no matter how hard we try
he can never hear us cry
we could scream and yell
but he is in his heaven while we're in our hell
I want to know one more thing
with my last bit of strength
is this it? Is this the end?
I want to explain it but I don't know how
I can't believe its come to this
it's our world, not just his
no matter how hard we try
the man can never hear us cry
we could scream and yell
but he is in his heaven while we're in our hell
The little boy wants his acceptance
but the man keeps his distance
the little boy has so many "whys?"
but the man won't open his eyes
The little girl just wants her dad
but the man doesn't understand
the little girl just wants to be kissed and hugged
but all the man does is shrug
The woman just wants him
But the light is getting dim
She loves him with all her heart
But the man keeps tearing it apart
no matter how hard we try
he can never hear us cry
we could scream and yell
but he is in his heaven while we're in our hell
I want to know one more thing
with my last bit of strength
is this it? Is this the end?
I
would choose this poem to read because it shows how trapped they are and
can;t be heard by anyone. IT also relates to Montag because he can't
tell anyone what is going on.
