A real man

A real man moves with quiet grace, Confident in his chosen pace. He builds with actions, steady, true, A vision clear in all he’ll do. He holds opinions firm yet kind, Takes risks that challenge heart and mind. Loyal to love, in any form, Through raging seas, he weathers storms. He lives with passion, full of fire, His dreams ascend, his hopes aspire. He earns with wisdom, spends with care, A humble heart, a love to share. He stands for truths he knows are right, In darkest hours, becomes the light. Unshaken when the winds betray, He finds his strength and leads the way. He asks, he listens, deeply feels, A heart that time and patience heals. Respecting bounds, he’ll never take A step that causes trust to break. He shows through effort, day by day, His love is more than words can say. A call, a thought, a tender line, He makes you feel you’re worth the time. No fleeting rage will guide his hand, He makes no moves he doesn’t plan. He shields your heart, holds it with pride, And walks with you, not just beside. He’s honest, open, free from fear, In every word, his truth is clear. He loves himself, the world around, In his embrace, strength is found. A real man judges no one at all, He helps them rise, prevents their fall. He’s not confined by fleeting trends, His character shines, it transcends. Skincare routines, a beard, or a chest, Don’t define him...he’s self-possessed. TV shows or sports don’t set the line, A real man’s values are his sign. He humbles himself, yet stands so tall, Lifts others up, empowers all. Forgives with strength, defends with grace, A steadfast soul, a steady place. Through every trial, he’ll remain, A man who treasures joy and pain. He loves, he laughs, he lives complete, A heart, a soul, a rhythm beat. For a real man knows, through every start, The greatest strength comes from the heart.,
