Movies that make me cry
List of movies that hit on subjects close to my heart. I don't think Tear Jerkers are necessarily all about lost romance. Sometimes life just sucks or you have that one moment where you have a mini heart attack from the pain of loss of hope. This is a list of movies that choke me up personally.

Everybody knows that. But I'm going to die today. Funny that... you know, to know. But the thing is, is that I'm still scared. Really scared. Nobody will mourn for me, no one will pray for my soul.

Nobody ever taught me how... nobody ever taught me how..."
