But I Never Cried Poem by Chitresh Jhawar

But I Never Cried

Rating: 5.0


I was thrown out of my house
and was beaten till my blood dried
but i never cried.

My best friend; why i called him my best?
Cheated me and took all my money after throwing me in a side
but i never cried.

My love, or so called my love
bluffed me and in my life brought a tide
but i never cried.

I was beaten, cheated and bluffed
so i started doing drugs
I began to drink the whole wine in a sip
and I went on a trip
'A trip', no 'The trip' to my past
when i was left forlornly in a bomb blast
the new family kept me as a mere prisoner
and threw me out of the house when i was a junior.

For no reason by the whole world i was criticized
but i never cried.

At my wedding day, the girl ran away who was my bride
but i never cried.

In thinking all the past moments
A tear rolled down my cheeks
I found myself crying
I don't know why, how and all but that time i cried.

I knew that fire evaporates water
So I burned my eyes and I died....!

This is indeed, a heart clinging poem. One that makes the reader feel empathy for the persona. The external rhyme creates a sense of Lyrical Poetry (Song): but, I can see that this poem can be a lot more poetic if you cut some of the words out and simplified your lines. Not sure if you are going for Lyrical Poetry or a Free Verse here. So, unfortunately, I cannot give much criticism on this poem.

I enjoy the way you use your words. Most of this poem was great, but it could be better. I can relate which is good and i like how you say it how it is. Life isn't always rainbows and butterflies, because 'then life would be death and our breath would be song, we'd have no need to live, for there'd be nothing wrong.' I would suggest more editting, and the use of written words, you have more to write on than a phone don't you?

This is a beautiful poem showing strength at first, and at the end you really see the weakness. I can feel myself in this poem. Very good. I love it.
