When a Woman Cries

Deep within 
Love is betrayed
Lips fall into silence
Leaving her with constant 
flashbacks 

Her heart becomes fragile 
Sleep becomes missing 
Eyes become blurry 
with tears 
And she is stuck between 
drowning and surviving 

Her mind is caged
Caged from singing sweet 
melodies
Caged from the sound 
of her lover
Broken in three different ways

Damaged, dead and dumped 
Body turns into a playground 
A playground meant for pains 
And loneliness craves for her soul
