Reshma Ramesh - Why I should not cry

I tuck my toes
Into the sheets
Lay my cheek
On my pillow
As tears dropp down
You catch them
With your tiny fingers
Small little palms
You press to my face
Wiping away my
Tears and pain
Big little eyes
You try to gauge
My anguish
Small little body
You press against mine
As if to absorb
All my pain
Small arms go around
My wet neck
Tiny voice assures me
He will be good
To make me smile
And he loves me
That is the reason
Why I should not cry.

Reshma Ramesh
