HIM

When the world seems heavy on his shoulders,

do not first seek ways to help.

Do not search for solutions and constantly
blur out the names of different problems.

It will only awake frustration in him.

Remind him of your existence and
communicate that you are there when needed
without overemphasizing it.

It is not a ‘man thing’ not want to talk about
it when disappointment is overwhelming and
anger steals the voice.

It happens to all of us.

Therefore, let your existence be his comfort,
your patience be his support,

and your presence his escape from the noise.

“Just be there for him.”

You will not always be rewarded love
for being a good man.

Don’t be a good man only for the sake
of love, but for the sake of humanity.
Love will eventually give credit where it
is due

Every minute you compare him to
another man,

he learns different reasons why he
should pack up his heart and find his
way to where he meets the standard of
being enough
