Soul Expression welcomes Mr. Seayon Lyttle to this platform. His poetry gives a fresh perspective, and may his voice echo wherever familiarity is found through his work.
What is a real man?
It will take some men a lifetime to understand this concept or meaning,
A real man is a person who stands on his own,
He can think for himself.
A real man can accept his wrongs and face them;
A true man will understand and face his fears,
But it takes a real man to love his family and kids,
To cherish his mother and the woman in his life.
It takes a real man to walk with the Lord and to have faith,
Even when it looks like there’s no hope, or ending to his sorrow.
It takes a real man to consider,
His hurts, his fear, his age, and sometimes his rage,
I considered myself a man,
But to be honest, I am still learning while gaining knowledge
And understanding, who I truly am, as a man, but I know I’ll get there.
A true man is someone that provides for his family,
But it takes a real man to know when he needs help the most and asks for it,
Like a poem rhymes,
The real man’s quality comes from the inside,
His feelings, his thoughts, and his faults.
As a child, I had a dad, but not a father
My dad did the best he could with what he had,
But it takes a true man to teach a boy how to be a real man.
