Who told boys DONT cry?
With all his dreams heavy in heart
He sent his wife inside the OT
Waiting outside with prayers
Anticipating a he or she!
In minutes
The doctor announced,
Operation successful, wife safe!
Child OKAY!
A chill ran down his spine
On the touch of his daughter
The newborn resembling his wife
In a thousand ways
That cry which showed him
Eternity
His wife happy tears
Priceless
The moon rised
Isolated in the darky sky
Starless and dull
Showing grey
Suddenly an alarm
His child helplessly suffocating
The doctors on the war of who to be
The captain of the sinking SHIP
CRITICAL
Minutes ran like seconds
He stood there still,
Blinded by dreams uncherished
Motionless he was,
Seeing his one-day old
Under the white sheet LIFELESS
He," Why wasn't death
As contagious as love?"
Who told boys don't cry?
