I've turned to an actress regardless my will, Life's poignant scenario brought me the skill. Performing, I find the salvation In changing my costumes and masks. It keeps my true guise ever changing in turn, The art of arranging's not easy to learn, It's more than just bright decorations. I've handled a difficult task. I fear the thunder, still dance in the rain, The gloomy surrounders claim I'm insane, Not seeing the sense in its absence - The actress is always to blame! My tragical comedies last for a while, Erasing the concepts "the truth" and "a guile". Deceiving the evident essence, I'm playing this innocent game. I speak every language of pleasure and grief, I've heard every rumor you spread and believe. Well, I am the subject this season, In fact I am proud of it. I'm nursing the thought they keep talking of me, Quite happy to seem a discover-to-be For no particular reason Except such a playful deceit. |

Nice, very song-like, and you sang it wonderfully! Love the last part especially. I think I'm gonna look forward to reading more of you. |

I fear the thunder, still dance in the rain, The gloomy surrounders claim I'm insane, I think we all play a role to a certain extent... for many varied reasons. This is excellent... I really like the above lines! |

“I've handled a difficult task. I'm playing this innocent game. Except such a playful deceit.” Very intriguing write... JL  |
