hugging my knees to my chest tears rolling down my face i didn't do anything, i keep repeating while they flow i cry silently because if i cry loud i will be hurt again i hide my face to keep the fists away the silent weeping that convulses my body i cry into my thigh, not letting my body betray my sobs the fists pummel my body and i take it, the sobs becoming louder even as i try to silence myself so he will not see me cry without lifting my head, i do not raise it, i refuse to let it happen, no matter what im still weeping, i try not to weep until i lie down and fall asleepBirth sign: Aries
