Burn the boats


Masculinity, a value that is lost,
It was indeed suppressed the most.
Its loss causes unimaginable suffering,
Yet everyone wonders about the suicides happening.

It once promoted loyalty and honor,
But now our lives are filled with horror.
All it did was encourage kindness,
But its absence creates hatred that's mindless.

Despite all the good it once did bring,
Its true meaning is now misunderstood, a troubling thing.
For some, it's seen as nothing more than aggression
Even if it's just strength's expression.

Let us not forget the importance of true masculinity,
For it is a force that can drive us to greatness and divinity.
