Memories Back Then

When i used to cry 
she says,

Why crying?

Is it because you are not a man enough,

Is it because you are too docile to be bold

In her slaping words,
I learn to smile when i cry,
To laugh even if it hurts

I hate my tears,
They makes me weak, but with this unhealing lesion 
Can you allow mr just for a moment 
Or i should burst in pain
