It's okay to cry

We are ashamed of our tears

Because we are told they are a sign of weakness

And no one wants to be weak

But there's nothing wrong in feeling this way sometimes

We all have moments

When we can't take the next step

Because we feel a tremor in the ground beneath us

And fear it will slip away

Right beneath our feet

We all have moments

When we are so afraid

Because everything is uncertain

And we know there's no safety net

To catch us when we fall

We all have these moments

So why should we be ashamed

To admit

We are only human?

It's okay to be afraid

It's okay to be tired

It's okay to be weak

It's okay to cry.
