Crying Behind Crocheted Curtains

Sad face looked out the window
Upon the shining night skies
A tear rolled down the face
The effect of hate and lies

Blue eyes squeeze shut
Trying to block the tears
Attempting to forget
It just brings back all the fears

Bites the lip till it draws blood
Just trying to quiet the sobs
Wants to but cannot hate him
Cries as the body throbs

Wishing not to be bearing
This hard and heavy burden
Forever the face shall cry
Behind the crocheted curtains
