She's Crying Again

She's crying again

her eyes are red

and her face is flushed

she's breathing heavily

and can't stop crying

she yells at herself to stop

"why are you crying?!"

she'll scream

"there's nothing wrong with you!"

although she knows there is something wrong

she just doesn't want to burden anyone

so she hides behind a smile

and only when she's alone

she'll collapse on the floor of her bathroom

and cry her heart out

"you're fine"

she keeps telling herself

"you don't have a reason to be crying"

she says

yet she continues to cry

I long to tell her

to tell her it's okay

to talk to me

so that next time when she cries

her tears won't fall alone
