Breaking points

Who could imagine that this person breaks at times? This person who exudes an aura of self confidence, walks with his head held high, looks you straight in the eye to tell you exactly what you want to hear....how could he be capable of breaking? You see him walking around like he knows exactly what to do and what to say to each and every person, he can adapt to situations and people...how could he ever be even in the slightest way capable of breaking down. You don't know that sometimes even a small mention of a year, a place, a time can lead him to break down. No one will ever see him break down, he's too good to ever allow himself to be compromised, but he will breakdown and retreat into his mind. And oh yes there are tears....tears that you could never imagine him shedding....but he does...at times he cannot hold back...but you will not see them....no one can ever be allowed to see them.

He will go on with the pretense...for as long as he's here but he will never let down this one wall. He cannot....for he has always learnt never to show such a vulnerability.
