Why Do We Cry?

Why do we cry
only to hide
in shame of our tears
blocked up by these fears

why do we love
only to give up
in hearts of our lives
blocked up by suicide

why do we hate
only to be ashamed
in love of our friends
blocked up until the end

why do we hide
only to cry
in shame of our fears
blocked up by these tears
