Social roles of a man.

July 17, 2015

Why are we supposed to be strong?

Why are we depicted as if we were stone?

Media paints a picture of what a man needs to be

But that isn't who I am

We too, break

We too, fall down sometimes

Why can't we cry?

We to, have moments of depression

I do, I do hurt

I'm not what media says I should be

I do have times where I'm in a dark place

But even more that that?

I am me
