nobody really knows
what happens behind closed doors
not until they get a glimpse of it
for themselves
the abuse
the tears
the hurt
nobody really knows
what happens when they're alone
behind closed doors
not until that person
has lived their last breath
the pain
the suffering
the misery
all gone now
your best friend
your classmate
that stranger in the hall
whoever she is to you
she's gone now
because nobody seemed to care
in her time of need
that smile
my dear
was false
the pain in her eyes
said it all
and not once
did you ask if she was okay
because what happens
behind closed doors
is left a mystery
until all that's left
is the memory
