how do you know you are about to cry?
So, something really weird happened. I was talking to my friend about crying and I was like "You know how like when you are about to cry and your nose starts hurting?" And she was like "uh no" and I'm wondering now. Does everyone get the same feeling when they are about to cry? How do you feel right before tearing up? Poetry or prose. I'm excited to read what you think, so please tag me!

Tears

The lump in your throat builts

until it feels like you can't breathe.

Tears began to prick your eyes and make the world blur.

Your face gets warm, but not a blush or smile.

And a panick in your head demands I hide my face.

Cry.

Nose burns.

Eyes hurt.

Choked up.

Vision blurry.

Tears start flowing.

Why can't I sop?

Crybaby

It starts with someone's words

They don't mean to hurt

Yet they make me question my worth

The words easily curl and grip

My jaw begins to tremble

All my words come out in shaky mumbles

The words then crawl to my cheeks

They turn towards my nose

Turning it as red as a blossoming, thorny rose

The words have finally reached my eyes

They twist and pull them tightly

Making hot tears flow against my face so unsightly

The words have become burning, bitter tears

They run along with my nose and sobs

Yet the words are still in my head, making my body throb
