You made me realize that my father might need this poem. It never crossed my mind until I saw your comment

Any man that wants to be THE MAN felt this

I’m unsure if should comment on this, as it is quite a loaded theme, but I will anyway. I’m a boy. Not a man. I haven’t experienced a lot of life’s struggles and I have not truly felt despair. Yet, despite my lack of knowledge from the library of life, i feel like there is some truth to this. I think the problem lies in the wrong ideology of the olden days, where a boy was not a man until he had worth to bring to society. Like Tsleeveless touched upon in his poem, that frame of mind still has some lingering powers over today’s society. Quite a lot actually. And that worries me about how many men have been taught to be strong, tough and unbreakable but not being taught how to cry. To prevent our emotions from accumulating over time killing ourselves both mentally and physically in the process. And no one is unbreakable until they have been broken and mended back together again at least a couple of times. Such is the way of life. At least to the knowledge of this 15 year old. On a bit less serious note, thanks for the video, man! Very eye opening and interesting to say the least. Keep up the grind🐢

Even in this video, he said “I was about to get into something “ but laughed it off and dismissed it. It’s subtle but that just reinforces this video.

I’m a feminist in every way and I’m so glad men are finally speaking about their emotional struggles. No one is cancelling this boy, but the real issue is no one is putting him on a bigger platform. I appreciate that you took the time to highlight him and his voice. These are the real conversations we need to be having.

you are an exception. If this guy gets put on a bigger platform other feminists will take this as a personal attack and fight back against it. It happens every time

Man I listen to this almost once a week it's like a motivator for me to keep going and do better

I completely understand

It took me a long long time abd lots of years of heartache to figure out that being hard and being "strong" is the easy part. As a man, being soft is the hardest thing we'll ever learn to do.

That hit me so hard, he nailed the struggle like nobody else has

I am here to soothe my soul, to help me understand the human condition, to see the world from other eyes. Wow, thank you.

"Women and Children First" Loving you was placing a gun barrel to my chin Because some of the shit you used to say just blows my fucking mind I made every excuse for your behavior to continue Every apology was met with forgiveness Until I couldn't forgive myself I allowed you to hurt me, and mar my mental health We made sense at some points But then we started keeping score Now we lay in our wreckage Our disdain was the water filling the hull And I've got a sinking feeling that you're not done hurting me

What the actual…. This was epically deep and hit home HARD thank you 🙏 for bringing this to my attention brother.. talk about hitting the nail on the head!!! I’ll be looking this guy up to check out more poems.. and also I LOVED marked… beautiful poem and hard hitting video u NAILED it son!!! (Pun intended) peace

Sure, sure. I plan on doing deeper poetry breakdowns in the near future. As for your last statement, I had trouble understanding it. I think there are some typos.

@@YoungbloodPoetry yeah that's on me sorry i can seem to find a video on the history spoken word poetry on KZread was hoping you can make one

He was punching.

Here’s the interesting thing about women. We ask men to be vulnerable, to show emotion, to “ tell us how you feel”… and when you do, most women are completely turned off by male vulnerability. If the zombie apocalypse happens, we need you to be strong, protect us and “be a man”. It’s hypocritical. The same women will say “ we don’t need men”. It’s also sad. We have to stop pitting ourselves against each other and work together.

Anything can be helped with awareness

The only time the public applauds men is when they want to be called a woman so what does that tell you
