“You've been crying for days
and for nights now.
What is it, sky,
that makes you sad
and troubles your mind?”
“I saw a man
playing with the pain
of another man.
I offered him the sun
to let him live.
He said no
because he didn't have
tears of compassion.
This is why I cry.
They are the tears
that man doesn't want to shed
in front of the pain.
And the rain will never stop.”
