you tell yourself "it's okay to be sad"
but you still cry yourself to sleep
every night
your hands still shake
because there's no one there to hold them
and you say sadness is a cliche
that everyone feels is unique to them
but that's the thing -
nobody wants to deal
with tired hearts
and shaking hands
at three in the morning
the world does not drop dead
when you do
