A Cry to No One
When he’s gone
she picks herself up
and sweeps up the pieces
of her shattered life
When he’s gone
she tells herself
it was her fault
and believes it
When he’s gone
she covers the bruises
with makeup and lies
and forgives him again
But when he’s there
she lives in fear
and tries to hide
from the monster within.
