Do you want to cry?

Are you sad and upset?

Are you home all alone?

Did you slam down the phone?

Was it something just said?

Did it happen just now?

Or replayed in your head

This moment! Just now!

Do you hold it all in?

Do you whimper in pain?

Are the sobs very loud?

Are you with a crowd?

Did you bang your poor toe?

Did you bellow or yell?

Was there squeals of delight

To win a free flight?

Was there a slight yell

On the step you did fell?

Or did you wince very softly

As it was so costly?

Are you greatly lamented

And dare make a sound?

Forever just haunted

As you look around?

No one to talk to?

Hurt and confused?

Nobody told you

You have the blues...

Do you look up and wonder

And ask your God "why"?

Shake your head wildly?

Do you let out a sigh?

YOUR POWER!

We all cry and that’s ok!

It’s a natural response for emotional release.

Crying releases #stress & relieves your pain, self calms, & soothes.

Tears cleanse the eyes and improves your sight

It is not a sign of weakness!

People respond to tears in a human way that offers attachment and helps #support. If your tears do continue and you can’t seem to stop, look for some answers and see a doctor. #Depression involves other aspects too but the tears are the clue when you always feel blue.
