I’m lost and no one is looking. I’m incapable of breath. I’m a horrendous matinee, To which no one bought a ticket. The vacant audience’s presence is accusing; Disappointed and Unimpressed.
But my matinee croons on, Waiting for a chance to be adored; Loved or Treasured. Each scene filled with the hope; That an admirer will step forth, From the outskirts of the empty theatre.
But the strangers on the streets stroll on, While I become a stranger to the stage; Unsure of a direction or dialoge I will falter And fail.
