Why is it that some men can’t cry?
When lovers leave and good friends die?
Why can’t we show a passionate side?
And prove we’re not made of stone.

What part of men holds the tears back?
Is it something we have? Something we lack?
Do we hold it all in until we crack?
And then we’re all alone.

Are men afraid to shed a tear?
Such an illegitimate fear.
Even when there isn’t anyone near,
A tear is never shown.

Why is it that some men can’t cry?
Were we taught to keep the tears inside?
Who will judge? What have we to hide?
If only we had known…

Bands: linkin park, SEAL(ARF ARF ^^),uhm a lot more but i cant remember

XD lol risk. i guess men don't want to show their weak side... thats how the society made them, i guess.
Bands: Linkin Park, Three Days Grace, Evanescence,.... TOO MANY!! >:O

But it seems that it would take a stronger man to cry than one that doesn't....wouldn't you agree?

It would be nice not to have to hold yourself back.

Shut up. >_>

(I don't mean you any hard feelings, but I don't even like JOKES like that. "Manlyness" is a fucking CLICHE, god dammit.)







Anyways, good poem, Kaze. Speaks to my heart. ._.

I cried last night, so I'm proud of myself. ...kinda. o.o

I wrote this because I'm ashamed to admit that I was...unable....to....cry... -.-

well...nothing wrong with being unable to cry...circumstantially it happens, i guess.

I'll bet it happens to all of us at some point or another. Nothing to be ashamed of, I hope.

But for the blowhards who force themselves not to cry because they think its 'manly'...effin' kick that for a way to look at crying.

oh man I cry all the time cause Imma big baby.
Bands: RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS

o.O... It's not just men you know. At times when I really feel like crying, there's something that kind of holds it back. And it's not me who's holding it back. So then yea... It's doesn't just occur in men =]

Men cry not for themselves, but for their comrades.
