Within the following poem is a hidden word, with its subsequent letters represented in some way in this poem. Similar to the previous "find the word in the poem" puzzle (SPOILER).

Here's the poem:

How

when knowing,

understanding my faults and redresses my halfhearted heart and weak regresses

do you insist on everything, and make sure I’m all right, and sing a stinging song, wrong

why

do you want to cry, every time I write, I lie?
