Suicide

 Let’s keep other topics aside

And talk about why men commit suicide.

I know this isn’t talked about wide,

But it’s not something to hide.

As for the reasons why,

The problems say hi—

But seriously, why?

Is it because we must be cold,

Yet bold, to handle it all kindly?

And trust the women we love blindly?

But that’s a matter of concern,

And maybe women should also learn

That men are told to earn,

To earn respect.

Respect—shouldn’t it be given to all,

Without letting their identity fall?

So a man stays away from pity,

And enjoys life, not stressed or gritty,

Rather than ending it with silence and pain,

Lost in society’s unforgiving strain.
