A Man.

To live with responsibilities tied to your shirt,
as you suit up for appointments
and having to comfort others,
when you are hurting.
Staying strong for others
when you are weakening,
so that you can show the world that you are capable.

Having to carry burdens
yet, keeping the body fit
and ensuring not to look unkempt,
so that what you are facing doesn't surface
and having to spend sleepless nights,
just to make extra income,
to demonstrate ability.

It's not easy to be a man,
to wait till everyone closes their eyes,
before letting the tears run down
and quickly wipes it away before everyone opens their eyes.
It's not easy to be a man,
to keep the faith up
and accept fate when things go unexpectedly.

It's not easy to be a man,
socked with anxiety as he knows not
the next shoe he's going to put on.
It's just not easy to be a man,
for responsibilities will call always
and inability to pick its call,
will show his inability.
It's not easy to be a man,
when you see a man, respect him.


Thank you for your time.


My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.

Still me,

My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

Being a man is about taking responsibility and using your willpower to become the person that you know you can and should be. It’s about using your power as a man to serve others and create positive change.

That's true. We strive to be better daily.

Man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides.

Okay. Another angle.

In today's society people have become self-centered. They are always busy with themselves. They are so engrossed in their material thoughts that, They do not have time to think about the happiness and sorrows of others. Which is very sad.😞

Sadly, true.

If you perform the sacrifice of doing your duty, you do not have to do anything else. Devoted to duty, man attains perfection.

Still haven't hit the point on the head though.

Ooh yes indeed we do respect man we know it is hard to stand in their ground but so are woman. We may have different roles but we are the same human who will felt burden and tired around. But we must not forget if we really are tired and feel weak we just need to stop of what we are doing, sit down and breath, you owe it to yourself. And let the tears fall down dont be ashamed every one cries and have tears you dont need to let them think that u are not affected. Cheer up! the poems is great 😁
