Frailty



Crowded streets where in  shadows hide,

I see the men who boast with pride-

Their words are strong, their hands are quick,

Yet hearts betray them, fragile, sick.


A mask of power, charm, or might,

Conceals the fear they cannot fight.

They stumble, falter, chase the vain,

And cling to pride to hide the pain.


They build their towers, reach for fame,

Yet crumble when they hear their name.

Promises break like fragile glass,

And honesty is left to pass.


Greed, ego, vanity’s cruel tide,

Obscures the strength they keep inside.

You call it courage, I call it blind,

A man undone by his own mind.


And yet, I see beneath it all,

A heart that trembles, scared to fall.

Not power, fame, or hollow praise,

But love and truth can mend their ways.


So listen, men, if you dare to hear-

Drop the masks, confront your fear.

Within your weakness lies your might,

If you embrace the dark with light.


Stop hiding, stop pretending strong,

Face the truth you’ve feared so long.

Frailty is human, not a shame-

But denial is what kills your name.


Rise, if you will, from this deceit,

Stand honest, raw, unbroken, complete.

For in your flaws, true strength is spun,

And from your scars, new life begun
