The Show Must Go On
Gazing into the mirror, as she adjusts her tempo, she hopes this wont end the way it had before.
A beautiful chill of bewilderment slowly creeps up her spine, it's the outcome which has her unsure.
Methodically she chooses the perfect mask, one which she is able to hide herself in.
Silently she tries to prepare herself, slowing the constant stir ,she knows that the show will soon begin.
A lonley marrionet , standing alone in a cast of a million unfamilar faces.
A fever of anticipation rages inside of her skin, full of frustration so the floor she paces.
The performance thats given demands petfection if she wants to prove to the world she's okay.
Hopefully this can make them keep their distance, and for a moment keep the wolves at bay.
