Poem: Behind Closed Doors

Poem: Behind Closed Doors

No one knows

another’s woes.

For what happens behind closed doors,

remains behind closed doors.

Sometimes, the pain is so unbearable

that the heart cries

when the mouth can’t.

Help is needed

to soothe the pain,

to help the heart,

and to console the mind.
