It's okay to cry.

Cry just because you can in the rawest of ways,

Cry because you're so extremely happy, a smile isn't good enough,

Cry because you're frustrated and everything's too much,

Cry because you're so unbelievably lost and confused,

Cry because you feel so hopeless and small,

Cry because you forget who you are that you miss yourself, because despite the "missing person" signs, that same person stares at you in the mirror, but it's all different now.

Cry because you're human, and sometimes pain brings wetness to your cheeks,

Cry because you can't breathe due to the laughter choking your lungs,

Cry because you're bored and your eyes are all dried up from lazy stares,

Cry because you're embarrassed, and your face is a shade of red and pink,

Cry because you're guilty and you don't know how to fix that feeling without breaking yourself or someone else,

Cry because you're sad.

Cry,

And never be ashamed of such an Intense,
Natural,
Human
Emotion.
