MENtal Health
An ode to men’s mental health
I am a man. Why does my mental health weigh less than none.
Fighting for control of my mind. The work is never done.
I’m taught it’s in my DNA to always be a stoic.
I’m suffering in silence and nobody even knows it.
My anxiety is high. Very high up in the sky. Where the birds fly.
There’s a smile on my face but inside I wanna die.
I’m good at acting as if there’s nothing to that can phase me.
But it really is an act, I’m out of whack and going crazy.
I desperately need something for my mind that can fix my health.
Awareness is a must. Please don’t disregard my MENtal Health.
