In shadows deep, a heavy crown we wear, To be a man, the world demands a test, With weary heart and burdens hard to bear, We strive for strength, yet seek a moment's rest. In silence kept, the feelings oft confined, For fear of tears, we mask with stoic face, Our dreams and hopes, in shadows intertwined, We walk a path that seldom shows us grace. Yet in the storm, a gentle light can gleam, A bond with brothers, lifting one another, Through trials faced, we find our truest dream, In shared embrace, each man becomes a brother. So let us speak, let courage light the way, For in our truth, we find the strength to stay.
