The Mind of a Theatre Chick

by Amber B

Sands of time fall
Trickling away
grain by grain
and you wonder
what exactly is your purpose

Minutes by minutes
tick by
Hours by hours
pass

Father Time
Mother Kind
I am alone

My mind wanders to places
it should have wandered before
but should not ever wander again

Dark places
empty spaces
deserted of dreams
engulfing aspirations

Doubt

An ugly proposition
a comforting friend
it lives in us
breathes our air
in
and out
snuffing our self-worth
feeding our fear

Never be alone for too long
not the lonely kind of alone

(It becomes too crowded up there)

As a theatre boy..I perfectly understand..just remember in all the world there are no folk quite so pleasant as theatre folk.
