My life is not the stage.
You have to get up
And sing with all your heart.
I can always
Blend in the background.
I painted it,I know its feel.
Shun the spotlight.
The shadows are part of me.
The curtain is rising.
Close your eyes for a moment.
Open them.
See the glitter.
Face the crowd.
Shine in your eyes,
Smile on your lips.
I will whisper instructions from behind.
Shout:
"Glory to the people!"
Make the show go on.
Don't let the curtain fall.
That is not for you,
But for me.
I know from bitter experience,
Death lingers behind the crowd!
