When the lights are off
silent cries,because no one must hear
hiding under sheets every night with fear
thankful for those nights that bedroom door doesn't open
disgusted with herself living each day heartbroken
having breakfast with him and his sick dissembled face
never giving up hope for that day she will breakaway
not living everyday attempting to hide that frown
but that hope fades away every night
when the lights go down
