No.
No crying.
Not this time.

Your face will not be tear-streaked.
Your nose will not get runny.

You will smile.
You will act like it's ok.

It is ok, right?
Just words, right?

You will wait---oh yep, you're fine.
You can be weak no longer.

You are a warrior, right?
Warriors don't cry at simple words.

You will put up your barrier.
Nothing can break it down.

You will not break down this time.
You will go on as if nothing happened.
