Empty Theatre of Loneliness
EMPTY THEATRE OF LONELINESS
You want to leave the stage, the action shun.
But a cold black hand grips your soul.
`
Nothing can be done. Nowhere you can run. . . .
. . . from the inside wholeness someone stole.
It’s a tragedy spun with only a single role.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
