Stage Set

In this defined notion of self
What would you be?
To be on a stage
Acting through your life
Be wary of the characters
They will love, and hurt you
They will help, and betray you
What of reality?
Is this all staged,
At the mercy of some kind of tyrant?
Yourself.
It is only what you make it
And what you want it to be
Be wary, as the curtains fall
Is this your first, or final bow?
