Stand steadfast Head held high Even when you're low Be a man Poems of her She feels upset She feels she's not enough Be a man Don't show them Don't tear up Don't you hurt Be a man What of the nights He stood alone He sat and cried Tired of being a man You can't feel that You can't show the pain Work so she doesn't feel pain What of the pain he feels The late night thoughts When he was tired Tired of the pain Fed up with the facade He let his emotions overrun He let the darkness in The pain became him But you'll never hear Never read a poem Or hear a song About his pain He has to be a man So a man he was Acted as instructed Until one night Well, at least he was a man until the end

Be a Man
Stand steadfast Head held high Even when you're low Be a man Poems of her She feels upset She feels she's not enough Be a man Don't show them Don't tear up Don't you hurt Be a man What of the nights He stood alone He sat and cried Tired of being a man You can't feel that You can't show the pain Work so she doesn't feel pain What of the pain he feels The late night thoughts When he was tired Tired of the pain Fed up with the facade He let his emotions overrun He let the darkness in The pain became him But you'll never hear Never read a poem Or hear a song About his pain He has to be a man So a man he was Acted as instructed Until one night Well, at least he was a man until the end
A poem about the fact that you won't hear about the pain that men endure, as we are to think that men don't feel the pain. Everyone hurts, and what do you do when you're told you can't feel that way?
