Don't cry
Everyone tells youIt'll be alright
Say your friends
Be strong
Says your family
You have to be perfect
Says societyBut tears
They are so much more
Than defeat
Than weakness
Than failureThose beads of salty water
Welling out your eyes
They are beautiful
Raw emotionYou can wipe them
You can hide them from the world
But don't ever let anyone tell you
That you shouldn't cry
