Don't Cry

Be quiet! Don’t Cry,

It’s hard, but try,

For the tears you may shed,

Hardly anyone cared,

No one should see you weep,

Nor you are hurt how deep,

Smile each time you feel pain,

Let laughter hide disdain,

Your tears will go in vain,

Nobody loses a thing, nor you gain,

People will console and show care,

But as much pain is out there,

So, hide your tears and love others,

You have to, if nobody bothers,

Laugh at pain, shame it,

Pain is precious, save it,

Though you be called a fool, mad,

Let no one again know you are sad.
