Sorry… I don’t know how to cry
How do they do it? Those who can
How do they not look like death afterwards
Or a sad clown portrait character during?
My eyes are dry and hurt so much
I don’t remember the last time
Where I sobbed so much I made myself sick
This sorrow, this pure unfiltered, uncut grief
Is making this body a crying mess
So… How do they do it? How can they cry?
How can they survive crying like this?








A gut-wrenching cry is therapeutic. Nice spill, Blue
Logically I know tears are healthy but crying is such a rare thing for me it feels foreign. Hopefully I figure it out.
Fia is right. You need to just let go of your feelings.
Brilliantly penned, Blue. Incredible spill my friend. The imagery and wordplay are fantastic. Appreciate you.

Thank you so much. I appreciate you as well. I’m still figuring out the posting style of this website.
A wonderful piece of poetry blue. Nicely executed.
