Everyone cries
Everything cries

a mother cries of joy
a child of sorrow
a soldier of victory
a family of ends

the earth cries
the same as an animal
the heavens cry
raining down upon us

But I don't

The day I stopped crying
The day I started approaching everything logically
The day I 'grew up'

I starting hating
Myself
My peers
My family

Feeling sorrow once in a while
Is better than despair every second

The day I stoppped crying
I died
