Big boys don't cry

 Big boys don't cry

Many young men are told this in their youth

By fathers

By uncles

By other guiding lights


The truth is

Big boys do cry

When they are hurt

Only children hold it in


Because so many have heard those words

They fail to have an outlet

They fail to truly grow

So when the world hurts them

They fight back

They lash out

They become violent 


Overgrown children scared of being seen as weak

But

They fail to understand the true damage they do to themselves 

As well as all those around them


Big boys don't cry

What a lie
