A poem about crying….because we’re supposed to….

Image via Wikipedia

My tears, they spill
In unwilled greed
Like my heart contracts
For my body’s need.

The salty ribbons stream
To unknot my concern,
And release my sorrow
In a necessary turn.

The drops, they sting
As heavy feelings project,
And then they disappear
With no pool to collect.

My eyes host a ready supply,
Even when my emotions are still,
For when it’s time to surrender…
My tears, they spill.

    We all do have our tearful times, hopefully not too often.

    It feels good after crying and letting your emotions out.

    I need a good cry at least once a year, of course I am a man but can be moved to tears pretty easily.~Jay
