The Curtain is my cape

The girl behind the curtain

She has no solid form

She stays behind it hidden

Because it is safe and warm

Were nobody can harm her

Or hurt and call her names

Where she can wear the curtain

And use it as a cape

Where what she wants is who she is

And everything she needs to be

Where she is the queen of her own castle

and everyone who laughed at her

Falls down to their knees

where pretending is her greatest weapon

her creativity prevails

and she can cry behind the curtain

and where she can never fail

where her curtain is her saving grace

her shield and her defeat

because she uses it to hide herself

from everybody that she meets.
