New Definition of Manhood

New Definition of Manhood

A Poem by B-poet

How many lives are affected

When I plant my foot down

In the midst of skeptics

Who question my intentions

Not understanding my vision

As man

That’s making the world a better place

I know my mission

While facing the hypocritical climate of a disillusioned nation

I don’t need recognition

I only need a sense of self appreciation

To follow through with my actions

For making the sunrises of others

More fulfilling as their sunsets

Are revealing all the hard work

I’ve put into towards

Relinquishing their stagnant progress

To achieve their hearts desires

Heard through my intuition

Because I’ve become the illustration

Of a true universal provider

In other words I’ve solidified myself as

The real man of the hour

this was motivating to read... self-affirming and determined.. a new definition for renewed invigoration, to know one's mission, that is quite a thing, and following through with your actions.. a most important reminder.

I do like this writing. It reads to me of the struggle to be understood by fellow man. A great many struggles are based in misunderstandings and judgments that are made without really listening to a person. It makes life difficult at times - well articulated here. I particularly like these lines...
"How many lives are affected
When I plant my foot down
In the midst of skeptics
Who question my intentions
Not understanding my vision
As man"
