Man Down

(A poem inspired by Rihanna song titles)

In a world where we wear masks,
Umbrella shields from the storms we face,
But sometimes it feels like we’re Lost in the dark,
Hiding our Teardrops on My Guitar in a lonely space.

Stay with me, I’m trying to be strong,
Yet S.O.S. echoes inside my mind,
Every battle feels like it’s been too long,
Where Have You Been? Can you help me find?

I’m not just a Rude Boy, I’m more than the fight,
We Found Love in moments, fleeting and bright.
Let’s break down the walls, talk through the pain,
What’s My Name? Let me say it again.

With every Diamonds shining in my heart,
I’ll learn to embrace every fragile part.
Love on the Brain teaches me to heal,
Through vulnerability, we’ll find what is real.

So here I stand, ready to be free,
Only Girl (In the World) when I truly see me.
Together we’ll rise, This Is What You Came For,
Men’s mental health matters—let’s open that door.
