No woman no cry ...

The young woman turned her gaze to the cloudy sky, devoid of stars. Clouds foreshadowed an upcoming rain on the island. The man next to him lit a cigarette of the few remaining in the box and took a deep breath, heating his dry lungs. Around, the street showed the ravages of the lack of active population, hunger, desolation. The man took the girl's hand and said bitterly: "the homeland has been stolen from our men." The young woman lowered her face and tried to say a few words, but felt that they were stuck in her throat.

The young was almost a girl, maybe sixteen or seventeen, with dark hair and honey complexion. The lad was also young, but with the maturity of an old man, he assumed the most solemn and authoritative stance in front of the woman and said:

_Today they have closed the entrances and only allow the passage through some areas after teaching some identity document. The control is vexatious and inhuman. Those of our group have had to hide, live in hiding, flee to the hills. Where we are going, there are people who want to join us in our struggle. Little by little, awareness is born that something is prepared, but nobody knows exactly what it is. They only know that this is everyone's struggle and that they will not have us on their knees. It will surely cost us our lives, but freedom is worth everything. Stay calm, don't cry.

The girl squeezed the lad hand tightly as some tears fell on her pants. His head lowered and her sob made him squeeze her hand tightly to cheer him up. At that moment, the sky sounded hard, without mercy, and was lit in lightning. The rain began to fall and wet the two brothers, while he said hugging her:

_Tell our mother to pray a lot for me so that her blessing never leaves me. Soon I will return and if I do not return, take me flowers to my grave. Don't cry, woman, for me. Do not Cry…

And the rain was falling, as if the sky also cried to see how all families, because of wars, lose their men ...

Very sad sentiment, tragic that we are still beset with wars.
Beautiful painting by Chris Ofili.

Yes. Unfortunately we are still threatened by unnecessary and fruitless wars. Thank you for the comment and for the data. Greetings

Hey didn't you post this already? Feels like deja vu.

LOL. No. I showed it to you privately so you could give me your opinion, @dmilliz. This is one of my favorite Bob songs. Women's tears can create the greatest of tidal waves, the most terrible of storms. There is a beautiful poem that says: "when a woman cries a termite is born, from there the landslides, the desolation of cities. Greetings. friend.

Oh yes hahaha my bad, I remember now, I took the code and plugged it into an interface to have look. I love how you painted a movie scene in my mind with your writing.

WOwI have never heard that one but makes me think, from a small tear drop filled with emotions, major butterfly effects occur. Thanks for the mind journey my dear.

You must have a background in creative writing

The experience of being a literature reader and teacher! Although the one who listens and appreciates music, develops the imagination and the ability to create worlds. Music saves us. Hugs, @cripticat
