You tell me a man does not cry <br />You tell me a man does not cheat <br />You tell me a man does not fall <br /> <br />Why give me tears if I should not cry <br />Why break my heart if I should not weep <br />Why agony, Why pain, Why bruises <br /> <br />Don't chain me with your rules <br />I break free of your endless rules <br />'coz I care for you but not your rules <br /> <br />I cry when it hurts hard <br />I cry when I see you cry <br />My heart breaks when I see your pain <br /> <br />I laugh when I am happy <br />I laugh when you laugh at me <br />I laugh at me, at my joke <br /> <br />I laugh at me for being a joke <br />A joke, not yet learned the art of living <br />A joke, not yet learned the art of deceiving <br /> <br />I laugh at my joke <br />A joke, that I made of the world <br />A joke, that I made myself to be <br /> <br />I cry because I am a man <br />I smile because I am a man <br />'coz I am what I am <br /> <br />I care not for name <br />I care not for fame <br />'coz it's all but a game<br /><br />Vinod Varma<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/that-is-me-3/
