I'd really love to cry, but I'm not really sure how

Put on your running shoes
shorts
and tshirt

Go outside
Take a deep
breath
exhale

Simply start
running
Any direction will do

Run hard on the concrete
Let out
loud sighs
angry yells
vicious swears

Slowly
It will release
You will taste
the heat, the waste
bitter
exhale

You'll feel
the sweat, the pain
jagged
release

And slowly
the gates will open
water will flow
and you'll stop
to lie, curled up
on the grass

wanting to feel close
to yourself
to the earth
catching shuddered breath
releasing uncontrolled tears

roll down
your cheek
and give
the earth
to drink
