Crippled Mannequin

No blank page to scribe
No empty spaces to scream
Should I down on knee?

Too much to be seen
Exhibition life had shown 
Privacy in threat

Fortitude concealed
Scratching behind walls of heart
Endurance break down

Love deep, better not
Sacrifice all, better not
Your life, your option
