The tear of an orphan child is a collection of poems, which haunted me from childhood to adulthood, they are poems that smell love, injustice, loss, betrayal, plots, remorse, with the
aim of elucidating about injustice, love, and overcoming things as a way to get rid of the pain of divorce. The tear of an orphan child uses profound language to express profound love and
frustrations inside. It follows of the paths of emotion, sensitivity and the imagination, transmits knowledge and human values. Better still, it shapes the human being and his feeling to poetry.
