was it my father’s son<\/p>\n
who threw in the towel?<\/p>\n
was it he who cried<\/p>\n
lonely, naked, stripped of<\/p>\n
courage, his strength<\/p>\n
his pride, his principles, his name?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
seriously, hang it up.<\/p>\n
if it is always<\/p>\n
on your mind.<\/p>\n
It’s doing no one<\/p>\n
else any good<\/p>\n
to watch you suffer.<\/p>\n
