It Feels Good To Cry

I’ve been struggling recently and as I lay in bed; a few tears trickle down my eyes.

In the adult world we can’t show vulnerability to anyone.

There are too many people who would take advantage of us.

But in the dark, I can allow myself to feel.

I know things won’t get better but in that bitter, black sea of despair, crying gives some fleeting sense of peace.

I feel this so deeply. Tonight I finally let the tears fall for the first time in months, and it reminded me how much we carry quietly. You’re right, the dark is sometimes the only place we feel safe enough to be real. Crying doesn’t fix everything, but it can soften the weight for a moment, and sometimes that moment matters more than we realize. You’re not weak for feeling this, you’re human. I truly hope tomorrow brings even the smallest bit of light for you. And just know you’re not alone in this.
