Beneath and beyond the ends of warmth and scars. And the horror of shades to tear. All along within the menace of our years. How could this be just mere? Gender equality; disadvantageous to our masculity. Our laws failed us,-failed to settle the disparity. Left us in mud of our fate; such a scroll, At the detriments of our souls. At times, I wonder the stance of men in **** Convicted and jailed just to knot tight his lace. He rapes, he’s justifies as an ape. When ***** he toiled in silence as his fate. If, Our society can’t help, but Protects other women’s rights and voice If, Men are seen toxic, but Still tonic the affairs of our state. If, Men are now monsters, Yet, represent elements of determination, growth and strength. If, That man could feed you care, and Still respects your gender differences. That man deserves your honor and regard, Because men are not stone, and That makes us sweet and admiring.

BOYS ARE NOT STONE
Beneath and beyond the ends of warmth and scars. And the horror of shades to tear. All along within the menace of our years. How could this be just mere? Gender equality; disadvantageous to our masculity. Our laws failed us,-failed to settle the disparity. Left us in mud of our fate; such a scroll, At the detriments of our souls. At times, I wonder the stance of men in **** Convicted and jailed just to knot tight his lace. He rapes, he’s justifies as an ape. When ***** he toiled in silence as his fate. If, Our society can’t help, but Protects other women’s rights and voice If, Men are seen toxic, but Still tonic the affairs of our state. If, Men are now monsters, Yet, represent elements of determination, growth and strength. If, That man could feed you care, and Still respects your gender differences. That man deserves your honor and regard, Because men are not stone, and That makes us sweet and admiring.
The position our society placed men has made us to forget some of the life threatening challenges they face at some point in their lives. However, this piece seeks to highlight some of those challenges and to also give voices to the oppressed men.
