When A Man Cry Poem by John Chizoba Vincent

When a man cry
The walls has broken
Spirit had left the body of his brother
Then headed down the street of nothingness
When a man cry
He had fallen from his responsibilities
And could not get hold of his ground
Because of the strong hands of desperate depression.


When a man cry
He had been cheated and made
To go beyond his ability in the face
Of injustice and denial.
When a man cry
Mountain fall, the died walk
and the living strife for peace
Rivers weep, coal becomes white
whilst the elephant trumpet.
The moon hide under the cloud for peace
He is nostalgia up his unrequested
situation of lack and want
Tears and pains, sadness and humiliation
Betrayal and infidelity.


Men cry for reason which moves swifter tan light
Watch, it takes the fall of the heart and body
For a man to cry.
When those tears pours, it overflow the river of darkness
Overshadow multitude of unquestionable situations
Which makes the heart weak and unpredictable
It outrageous to watch a man cry.
