Performance

A girl stood alone,
In a broad daylight; I admire,
Days changed, but she stood alone,
Will this show end, I desire.

Like Pierrot, she stood in aware, 
They enjoyed the live performance,
There, I can see her seeping away,
My hands tied, permanent stance.

The last time she stood,
The deed seemed effortless, I bet,
There, she reached the goal and crushed,
All the act, performance, angst upon it.

I contented and pray that the standing girl retire.
