Hidden away in a corner,
Silently, secretly crying.
No one can see my tears,
for they are my weakness.
My broken heart pounds,
aching with each breath.
But I have to keep on going,
even if there's nothing left.
Hiding from the outside world,
the truth feels like a dream.
Safely in my own corner,
I can hold on to my heart's wish.
I fear having to face the truth,
that awaits outside the door.
And then it's time to return,
back to the world I now fear.
Having to face the reality,
of you not being here.
My heart stopped beating,
for I have left it behind;
Hidden away in a corner,
Silently, secretly aching.
