Men Can Cry Too

crying is the most beautiful emotional release for everyone

Pity or resentment

When seeing him, in the embrace of an increasingly anchored age

But for women, the value is hidden

When men reveal their deepest side

Courage displayed in tears

Open nature, no longer a secret

In crying, they believe

Can help, guide to the blue sky

"Men shouldn't cry," was once heard,

But the error, slowly revealed in the story,

Since childhood, prohibition and ridicule

Making men, not free to cry

But crying is not a sin

Not a woman's right, a rigid destiny

Emotions become a source, men are no exception

Without a way out, the heart becomes restless

You are a man, don't hesitate to cry

Relief and peace, waiting there,

In every tear drop,

Engraved courage, towards the true self

    I am a boy so I have cried as well. It is a natural incident when our heart melts!

  • I hate people who judge men for crying, showing emotions or being vulnerable. They're also humans, just like women. I wish this discrimination would stop!
