Life Gamble


Photo by Pranavsinh suratia:

All in the name of being a man

We tear down walls of emotions

Mastering the courage not to let a teardrop

Yet troubled with a lot.


All in the name of being a man

We build our house of cards in a lie

Telling all of a strongman we are

Yet in darkness, we tear apart.


All in the name of being a man

We celebrate our tears in silence

Mastering no courage to speak our truth

To the extent, that the nails of pain crucify us in silence.


All in the name of being a man

When we speak of our thorns

They call us for not being a man

Hypering our struggles, to be a behind-curtains thing

That when the curtains open

Only sunshine is allowed to remain

Yet our souls bounce among the graveyard.
