Why Was I Crying? Poem by Dhiren Doley

Why Was I Crying?

Rating: 5.0


From far a mountain cleft
A broken voice came through the jungle wind
Probably a baby's cry
I was sleeping already
The snowy breeze was scorching my fragile bones
Then the broken cry hit my half-wake dream
And a weird sorrow silently grew up within
As the cry immersing deeper, deep inside

Then I never understood
Why I was crying in the deep corner of the mountain
Was it because of the love denied?
Was it because your promises broken?
