I cry at night and I'm fine

I cry at night, where the world has quieted. Where all you can hear is the breathing of another human being beside you or from yourself.

I cry at night and it feels good. Because it is a time of the day that you feel closer to the world, to the ground, to the land, from the universe.

Some people think people who cry at night are depressed. Maybe they are, maybe I am.

Some people think when you cry it only means your sad

but there are what you call happy tears too

or 'this is so overwhelming that I'm crying' tears.

or 'I'll cry for an hour but I'll be okay' tears.

and 'I'll cry just because the night has come' tears.


Crying at night feels good.

Because maybe just like when you're happy, the aftereffect is that your sad.

Maybe this time where I cry at night tomorrow morning I'll be fine, 

happy and relieve.


If this means tomorrow I'll be smiling brightly

then crying at night is good


I cry at night

but

tomorrow morning

I

WILL 

BE

FINE.


You will too.


Hopefully.
