We Men Cry Too

At birth, babies emit cries Cries for entering suffering Suffering and hurdles of life Life triggering our growth Growth into a strong man Man of scars and sweat Sweat as fruit of hardship Hardship making me stronger Stronger morally, for born to a woman A woman who sometimes cries Cries making cool her sensations Sensations men and woman have Have the men emit cries Cries men sometimes keep hidden Hidden but poisonous to kill a man A man of a woman share emotions Emotions making man shed tears Poem by N.
