No Encore

Some days I wonder

If I read you my life story

Portrayed all my secrets

On a stage swallowed in shadows-

For it would have to be shadows

With a mind such as this-

If I showcased my faults, my virutes

Would you sit there still

As if it were another day?

If I let you peek in my journal

If I let you in my head

Would you still speak with me

As if they were only passing frames?

I'd like to think so

But if my reality should clash

With my fantasy

I would dare not hope

You would stay another day

I doubt I would have another show

The curtains would close

As a wooden cane drags me away

No, there would be no finale for me

I would have no encore
