I know
What you say
And it’s easy
To say
Don’t cry
But you lie
Don’t cry
Prices of food
And don’t cry
At the rude
For you can
Help in small ways
Help on many days
And you know
If cries go
The heart frays
Don’t cry
Then you sigh
You say
You have it okay
Today
And yet
I say
To my self
In the mirror
The fear or
The next thing
Around the corner
There is no
Certainty
No predictability
You say don’t cry and
I say it too
Don’t cry and don’t
Believe it is true
Just don’t
Read or hear
Don’t let the fear
Get to you
Don’t cry
Okay I won’t
