Just Cry

Just cry.
Cry the night away.
But be strong in the morning.
Continue the illusion that everything's okay.
Stay strong for your family.
Your friends.
Yourself.
The night is the only escape.
The only place to be alone.
So let it all out. 
Scream.
Not to loud, but in your pillow.
Punch.
Punch that pillow and let your anger out.
Cry.
Don't hold back.
Don't share anymore.
Your friends are tired of hearing it-move on.
Leave it to yourself to be weak.
Maybe your friends will think you're better?
But they're wrong.
You're dying inside.
You're hurt; crushed.
You need something.
Anything.
So cry.
This is your only chance. 
Your pillow is your new best friend.
And it's always there for you.
It's only thing that can last forever.
Tell it your secrets.
Hold it tight in your arms.
You couldn't ask for a better friend.
Plus, you won't feel like a burden.
It's a perfect escape.
It might not give advice or talk back
But sometimes all you need is a hug.
Something to cry on.
So go ahead.
Waste your time.
But only for these nights.
