why are men so mean?

why are men so mean?

A Poem by butterfly

why are men so mean
why did we accept their behavior
were we blinded by fake dreams
all the girls you talk to are someone's daughter
Why do you forget when you take one for a lover
we aren't tools in the shed
we aren't a fun secret
we need respect
sadly the men let it all end
thats why so many sit on the single bench
with their golden rings and untouched things
with only the touch of their hand
they keep hidden what they refuse to understand
i am frustrated and mad
why when we talk its only about sex
is there no other way to connect
what about my brain
what about my heart
why do you insist only on taking our bodies apart
then you take your secret lover
push her over
to die in the lagoon
you go and hide her
but our father will reveal her soon
because you lost your way men
you just want to grow more seeds
in to children who were born to only know mean
maybe thats why abortion is here
God can see from above something is wrong and its clear
men only take to leave us raped
but we get blamed because we were dressed that way
meanwhile snow white and the prince become innocent victims of hate
unleashing on us the feeling of eternal heartache
did you forget i was someone's sister mister
did you forget we could be a friend
just like the others you cast me away in the end
call me a secret prize like its a sweet poem written from a lovers mind
when in the end we are angels born of starlight
your evil deeds of dark wont make us vanish in the night
taunt us with your fake dream
yet it will be you who will have to answer why men have become so mean

Strong write butterfly. Yes there are mean men but there are also very considerate men. I think you are right. If every man treated women with respect like they would their mother or sister, vast improvements could be made. I am shocked at the violence against women. All over the world sisters are disrespected. Education, education, education. It needs to be priority. Women have to be considered more. Your lines raise so many valid points and you express them so well and poetically. Pleased to have found this post today.
