Bittersweet

You can cry when you are sad.
You can cry when you are happy.

But when you are hit with both at the same time
Crying becomes confusing.

Your emotions are being pulled
in two opposite directions.
Yet they arrive at the same result – tears.

Maybe it’s easier to treat them as one combined feeling
No! Just ignore their meanings
the events that gave rise to the feelings
And let them overwhelming me
Take me over

And cry my eyes out
