Tears

If you cry, you're known as weak.
If you cry, you're labelled as a crybaby.
If you cry, people will make sure you remember that.

Society says men don't cry.
But that's false.
Society says women cry for attention.
That's false too.


If a tear streams down your face,
It means you've been holding a battle inside of you for so long you can't hold it anymore.
If a tear streams down your face,
It means you have a heart,
You can actually feel.


Men cry.
Women cry.
Everyone cries.


If you see someone who's been crying, or is on the verge of crying.
Sit down next to them,
And ask them.
Ask them if they need a tissue, or a hug.
Ask them if they need to let their feelings out.
No matter a stranger, an enemy, or a friend.
Everyone deserves a person who cares for them.


A tear doesn't make you weak.
A tear doesn't make you an easy target.
A tear doesn't make you an object to play with.
A tear doesn't make you anything but strong.
It makes you see the problem in a different view,
A view in which everyone, society, doesn't want to see it in.

A tear drop, simply makes you a human being.



Author's Note:-
So this 'chapter' is about how I think society views people who cry. Whether man or woman (or any other gender/sex). I felt the need to write this because people actually believe what the society says, what stereotypes they add, everyone wants to follow. And it's not always a good thing.

So I hope you like this update and actually understand what my concept is. :)
