dust untouched

Stage of Tragedy

My story is torn at the edges and ripped at the centre

The main character has become weak but the show must go on

Cast began to flee as they had enough of the tale

Audiences leaving to be gone

Lights dim out as do the stars in my eyes

The rhythm of music fading like the beat of my heart

Slowly and slowly

Until the silence fills in for all the empty parts

But enough's enough

Call the curtains to close

As I realize now, on this stupid show

I am standing on the stage of tragedy

One day, meant to be laying lifelessly 

And don't bother coming back

Once the play reaches its end

You'll just be wasting your time
