'A man cannot cry'.
That's what the society taught him.

He has been lied to.
He has been abused.
He has been cheated on by his girl.
He has been broken.
He has been betrayed.
He has been through failures.

Yet, the society
didn't care to
listen to his screams,
because it was busy
fighting for women's rights.

So, he hid his tears and
tried to wear
a fake smile
to fit in,
because
the society's
terms and conditions said,

'A man cannot cry'.
