Wrong Emotions

I cry all 
The time, 
And knowing 
I shouldn't do it 
As an adult, 
It tears me apart. 

I can't get mad 
At everything 
Like I do now.
Knowing that if, 
I snap at others later, 
It hurts me. 

Showing my emotions, 
It seems the future 
As an adult 
Forbids it. 
Seeing we all act alike, 
Why?
