Remind me, again-
Why it is, that tears
Have become something that
Everyone is so afraid of?
At what point did we decide-
That instead of letting our tears
Fall like they’re meant to-
It would be more honorable to
bottle up our every emotion
and become numb to
Our own existence?
I’m personally in the mind that-
Every sorrow only makes us more aware
Of everything we are lucky enough to still
Hold onto.
And then, we have the tears that come with
honesty, and wonderment,
And the ones from laughing so hard
We cant hold them back-
Or the tears from rage, and
Heartache-the ones that if we didn’t
Shed, would become a thing
To be even more afraid of?
And, don’t let yourself forget-
The tears of pure passion,
And strength. The ones
That fall from universal love, and
Understanding.
Don’t be fooled by what you’re told-
We need to be in a place
Where we learn to love
All the ways we cry.
