When your ego has been shattered <br />And spilled upon the floor <br />You must gather wits about you <br />And make quickly for the door <br /> <br />Never let the bastards see you cry! ! <br /> <br />When you think you can't go on <br />And a darkness <br />Fills your soul <br />Slap a smile upon your face <br />And remember drama 101 <br /> <br />Never let the bastards see you cry! ! <br /> <br />When you need to shake that hand <br />And humility takes it's toll <br />Then shake with strength and dignity <br />Remembering all that is right <br /> <br />and <br /> <br />Never let the bastards see you cry! ! <br /> <br />Dee Daffodil (HW) 12 February,2007<br /><br />Dee Daffodil<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/never-let-em-see-you-cry/
