It's actually ok to cry
To let emotion fill your eyes
For tears to reach the edge
To spill over and fledge

I thought it was a sign
Of weakness of the mind
I would stop my heart
From talking with my head
Change the subject
Think of something else instead

But now I understand
Hardness isn't bold or grand
If something hurts my soul
It's ok to let it show
For being touched by what is sad or wrong
Can only make me wise and strong
