Who made the rules that I shouldn’t cry when my wall is falling apart?
Where was it written that , i am supposed to be the sacrificial lamb of my family without getting my flowers?
I am strong no doubt, but sometimes I need a shoulder to lean on. Let me rest my heavy heart when it is necessary please.
So because, I am a man, I do not deserve to be appreciated? Even the sand get watered in order to produce good and quality food.
I am left to suffer in silence because God made me a man? No, I deserve to be heard and provided solutions to my problem.
As a man, I can be a victim of sexual harassment, but just because I am a man, the society has shut me up and left me in pieces , to suffer my ordeal in silence.
I work day and night , like an animal in order to keep my family together and I get no appreciation in return, just because I am a man.
I get no Justice despite the many crimes committed against me in the society just because I am a man . What is my offense?
How come the society sees me as a working tool but don’t value my existence? Am I not contributing enough?
How come I am constantly reminded that I need to be rich in a certain age but still , they don’t want me to exist
I could be in my most worst moment and the only thing I hear is *man up*?
Sorry to ask dear society, is there a certain pill to ease life stress for the boy child known as man up? I deserve to know please.
How come I am left alone to deal with life issues alone , without being considered as human with emotions?
I am still yet to understand why they call me a man , God’s perfect creation , but I am treated like the one God dislike the most, neglected in the most uncomfortable way.
I am yet to understand why I am supposed to live under pressure , instead of peace.
I am still yet to understand why I am expected to do the most, but get the least compliment .
I am still yet to understand why I am treated as if I do not exist, but they won’t let me exit in their life.
I am still yet to understand why I am treated with zero empathy but they still want me to show the world empathy.
I am still yet to understand why life isn’t always fair to me .
Yes I am a man, my ordeal matters.
