Unexplained tears

Why shed tears,
My love?
Why are you crying?
Shedding tears for
Something a man not
Understands.
I pain to bare witness,
On misery unexplained;
Misery nature curses
Each woman with.

The gift of life
Should be a joyous affair;
Joined not with misery and pain.
Men should walk in pride
For what you endure;
Not just for the pain
Of the actual birth;
But to things that go bump,
And dismantles your flow
That destroys your enjoyment
Of things going right;
Causing tears that men
Not understand.

Why shed tears,
I ask you my love?
Please let me know,
I want to know more,
To understand,
What's it like to
Carry a burden just
To walk this path called life.
