You Mock Me And I Cry Poem by Hebert Logerie

Wherever and with whomever you are
You laugh and you make fun of me
I cry: I am still alive; but I don't die
It was yesterday that I was rejected by death
I am a man who hopes and dreams
Thank god, I pray before the sun rises
You laugh like a naughty cat and I cry
Like the neighbor's dog stranded outside
I cry like April showers. I'm not wrong
I resign myself and I'm not afraid
Wherever and with whomever you are
I don't care, I don't give a crap about the silk jersey
I am pushing my cart to eternity
To forget you forever on the booby-trapped road.
