I never had the need to cry
To never show emotion, I vowed
Crying was a mystery
I never really knew how
Until tragedy struck
I watched my Grandma and Aunty die
I finally felt the emotion
To release, I had to cry
Now the tears flow out of me
I don't even have to try
Just to see or feel emotion
A tear streams from my eye
This happened to me recently
About a month ago
I was struck by sadness
But I tried not to let it show
I hid myself in my room
Uncontrollably I sobbed
He shattered my heart completely
In a way, I felt robbed
The courage it took
Just to ask him out
I fell so hard
Without a doubt
This powerful emotion
Sad, we were not meant to be
I didn't know it hit me that hard
Without knowing, it crept up on me
Crying was so refreshing
From a prison, I was released
Letting the emotion out
I now feel at peace.

A very good write, so full of emotion. I am so glad you are now able to cry. It is such a release of emotions, beginning to cleanse the heart of it's sadness, so we can face the future again.
My best to you in this contest.
