curtain
shield me from the world, my beautiful curtain,
shield me from prying eyes
shield me from the horrors of this universe,
and all their pretty lies.
the world sees how beautiful you are, my curtain,
they see how much i adore you.
they see your worth within your piece of cloth,
of flowers and textures through and through.
yet they don’t know the mess you hide inside,
they do not know the privacy you set apart.
you shield me from the world, my curtain,
but please do not shield me from your heart.
the world may just see your pretty patterns and colours,
but i want to see the home you made.
i want to see the beauty of the house that you built,
and the memories that you and i create.
