Tears

Why do we only cry behind closed doors?

Has nobody ever cried in public before?

We’re human beings after all, that’s a fact

So why can’t we behave with a little tact?

Tears are a human’s purest sign of emotion

It is not a sign of weakness or a demotion

For even the upmost joy can bring one to tears

And so can the realization, of our biggest fears

Have you ever cried at a movie at all?

Or felt even the tiniest tear drop fall?

Remember when you heard certain lyrics of a song?

How can the world believe it’s wrong?

Whether we realize it or not, it makes life grand

It means we can relate and that we understand

They should bring us closer and not tear us apart

But these tough folks, don’t know where to start

Tears makes us real, warm and maybe even bold

As opposed to robotic, heartless and cold

But then, people are horrid, selfish and cruel

They think they’re strong, so they act like fools

Tears are not something to laugh at or mock

It’s something we all do, like looking at a clock

Remember what you are before you judge a person

And please don’t let your heartless cruelty worsen

So, if you feel that lump in your throat, don’t ask why

Just let it all out and cos you should never be afraid to cry
