Ladies and Gentlemen, I present you, "She, Her"


Audience audience! Please, please.
Take a seat, feel at ease.
It's going to be a long show.
So best be at the front row.

The curtains are drawing up.
There she stands, with a small cup.
She smiles like a sweet fool,
And tells you that it's half full.

Her casts are make-believe.
They come, and they leave-
Transposes to her whims,
But vanishes as the spotlight dims.

But the show sometimes has to end.
In lightness, the casts her friend,
In darkness, her cup half-full, disappears,
And instead is filled with her terrified tears.

But the true magic to her genius
Lies in the fact that she is completely oblivious-
To the stage. To the audience.
To the actor that is her very self.


The world's her stage!
Her life- a page
Written over,
No cover.



So she acts her life away... ...

... She knows no other way.

i see my smile behind that curtain
hoping i can show it too, but i know that there is only space for one,
though so ugly, my doppelganger
acts better than me.
