It’s Okay to Cry
- a Poem
- by Jethro André Jolliffe
It’s okay to cry
When things go out of control
When not everything may seem right.
It’s okay to cry
When you are in pain
When it gets too heavy on the inside.
Let it flow
Let it all go
Let the pain flow out
Let it, just go.
It is not the end of the world
You can still get up and try.
Even the clouds burst
When it gets too heavy.
You don’t become weak
If that’s what you are scared of
That people may look down upon you
It’s okay to cry.
It is okay to cry
Because…
You can take a deep breath
And get up and try.
There is nothing that can’t be fixed
Everything has a solution
You just got to find a way
And believe in it.
Remember
It’s okay to cry
Till you get back up and
Try.

Thank you for the motivation! It generates so much of energy to begin from the scratch.
You are a blessed soul, so sensitive and caring your poems are! You really connect well with your readers.
Keep writing so that we keep going……?
Jethro: Tears are our friends when the going gets rough or it gets very good. It eases the pain inside and when they dry, we are renewed.
You are very sensitive to understand that. Great writing for the soul…
