You can't keep your eyes closed all the time.

Lately, I've been crying about things more than usual. But I think it's a good thing. I feel like I'm more open right now, more vulnerable, maybe more honest and willing to face the things that hurt.

Life goes by
Keeps moving
Keeps changing
And all you can do
Is hold on really tight
Hold on
To anything that seems
Almost secure
And then
You close your eyes
Preparing for the loop
The flip you knew was coming
And then you open up
And hit the next
The one you weren’t expecting
You forgot to close your eyes
So you saw
Life, pain
Everything you’ve been avoiding
And you couldn’t help
But cry
