For a boy to cry
Isn't such a terrible thing
Is it?
If a girl can cry
Can laugh
And love
And hate and be angry too
Shouldn't a boy?
We all pretend that boys are
Strong
Impenetrable
Mighty
Armour without breakage,
When really
They can be dreamers
And thinkers
And lovers
And schemers
Boys can laugh
And hate
And be angry too.
For a boy to cry
It just shows that he is brave enough to be
Vulnerable.
Himself.
True.
For a boy to cry
Isn't such a terrible thing
Because if a boy can cry
Then he can also surely love you
