The Theatre of Shadows

The Theatre of Shadows Welcome to the theater of shadows A place where there’s no time and space No heartbeat, no shine No rhythm, no rhyme. Yet the place is full Everyone seems eager, yet so dull Their eyes glazed Their souls chased Their innocence has faded Shame glitter on their faces Frozen with fears No melody to their ears Yet they keep on coming, yearning To watch love’s greatest performance But the stage is bare, there’s no one there No solace for their despair 3RD PLACE Loss of an Innocent Mind - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Kai Michael Neumann
