In Broad Daylight

Real men cry in broad daylight.

With nightfall, solitude tags along,

and in the moon's arrival,

some find the time to cry.

But why wait for nightfall?

Why wait for solitude?

Why hold back on your tears

when you know they are ready to flow?

We are told to choke all emotion,

put a stopper on all weakness.

So we do as we're told

and soon enough,

we forget how to feel properly.

But to those whose manhood

isn't bound to them as a facade:

you are the men with the strength to cry

in broad daylight.
