She sat there crying her heart out
In her secret hideout,
Where no one could find her on a normal day.
But 'today' was different
And today she was caught by those prying eyes,
Eyes full of disgust and loathing.
"Why are you crying?" echoed that voice,
And it literally made her shudder.
She tried to look away,
And tried to hide her tears,
And made an honest attempt to wipe those away.
She couldn't bear the intensity of the stare anymore
And fled the scene as an urgent gesture.
"Be Brave" She was told
"Tears are for the weak."
And how could she fail
In the eyes of 'others'?
"Be brave" she told herself,
"And hide those filthy tears."
No matter if it flood your heart from within
Don't let it flow
And don't let anyone know.
