It’s not easy to cry
For some people it’s not easy to cry
To succumb to the sorrow
To yeald to the pressure
I use to cry without shame
It was natural
It helped me understand the nature of things a little better
I didn’t know that talent could be lost
Or what the repercussions would be
But yesterday the pressure was too great
And I started to cry
I cried harder and longer than I’ve ever cried before
I cried for loss
I cried for love
I cried for forgiveness and mercy
And when I finally stopped crying, I knew I would cry again
I cried in front of my friends
I cried before strangers
I cried and I cry
It’s not easy to cry
It’s probably never easy
But I’ll do it again and again so I never forget why we cry
