A man who can stay without a woman,
A son who can honour his parents,
A father who can take care of his children,
A husband who was betrayed by his wife...
A friend who is a friend to his friends,
A fighter for truth right up to the end,
A patient soul bearing life's ups and downs,
A believer in God and not in the fiend....
Why must I convince any one about me?
Why must I pacify any one on one knee?
For what cause must I hide the real me?
The truth is plain for all who can see....
I am not naive nor am I keen,
To know what is unknown and unseen,
Unlike one who doubts and suspects me,
I am bold and gallant in my sincerity.
You have lived among dodgers and cheaters,
Even I have encountered many in this world,
Yet my friends of years are still friends,
And she who lost me longs for my cheers.
For what cause must I then go out of my way,
To satisfy you just on the whim of a day,
If you trust me not...I shall not entreat you,
To remain as my friend...for I hate word-play.
