Crying is a strange thing. A little whole along your eye leaks water. It trickles down your cheek in two perfect lines and drops of the chin leaving a little wet dot on the floor. Too many tears and you start to get a puddle, with the tiny tear droplets all running together in agony. But there is a reason behind this occurrence. Someone is down. Sad. Depressed. Hurt. Etc. It's releasing of the emotions, "letting go." And it's seen as a weakness.
Do I cry? Rarely. I force myself to be strong, but for what purpose? Does it really matter how strong I appear when I'm torn up inside?
Oh cruel fate to have caught up with me now. Now you bring your hurt and heartache and tears. One day soon I will conquer you, and not care enough to even want to laugh in your face! But tonight, tonight the tears want to fall.

ReplyDeleteBut I cried when you were born...
ReplyDeleteCrying isn't always because of sadness or when one is hurting. In regards to you, the first time you made me cry was when I saw you as a tiny little wiggly bean with legs on an ultrasound screen! I cried very real tears of joy! Remembering that moment right now, again, brought tears to my eyes. You have to look through the tears to get the real meaning of the moment and then fix it or bask in it! :). I love you my little bean!
