Description My back broke under the weight of the
      expectations I had
            for you.

I saw you not as you are
  but as flawed as
         I am.

We are who we pretend to be
       and I have worn the mask of tragedy
               for far
                   too
                   long.

So great are our tears
    yet so small our sufferings.

-D.E.M

The first stanza is fantastic, and the entire poem is a powerful statement.
