hides away
Keeps from sight
Hides away means to conceal oneself or something in a secluded place, often for protection or privacy.
A person might hide away from the world after heartbreak, or hide away valuables in a safe.
The phrase emphasizes withdrawal or seclusion more than simple hiding: She hid away in her room for days, He hid the letters away where no one would find them.
