Crying tugs at your heart,
like it’s trying to give you a hug,
like it’s as sad as you are.
Making your breaths heave
at uncontrollable rates,
like laughter
without the smile.
Your cheeks are flushed,
but not because of embarassment,
not because you caught eyes with your crush.
Crying shakes your shoulders,
confusing your brain and heart
that won’t work together.
Crying confuses you,
in that moment you don’t know who you are,
it doesn’t know what it is.
Anger,
Fear,
Happiness,
all expressed at such a quick rate,
that you are left
dry.
