THE CIRCUS IN ME

Yes, my life is a circus A product of illusion I heal souls lost in time While taming the beast within me. I am the juggler Skillfully bouncing others' griefs I am the stunning acrobat Bending and twisting through my struggles. With a sleight of hand I create wonder from my woes Have them flicker away By simply ignoring them. Yes, my life is a circus I am the roller coaster Spinning my troubles Into an invisible bin. When night falls And I finally look up At the empty stands I realize my life is but a joke.
