“Someday”

Perhaps I can be a
Perfect actor to
Myself—
Look in the mirror and
Take these bones and
Make out of them a
Smile of someone
Who can convince me of
Who I am
Right now

I’m not really interested in
Cultivating my personality
I simply want to
Fool myself in order to
Exist

This romance or realism
Promises much suffering
For those
Who choose to
Love me

Someday
I will be left alone on an
Empty stage
