Take a Bow.

The curtains go down as the lights go out. I wither, I turn, I twist and I shout. I played the only role that I assumed I knew. It turned out in the end, that the star was really you. Your words were so believable, how could I not be enticed? Your lines were all receivable, full of malice and spite. The way you delivered them sent chills up my spine. Now our bodies have separated, no longer entwined. You claimed I was your equal, only to lead me astray. I listened so intently, until you walked away. You ran off of the stage, leaving me in tears. What a pity, a travesty, after so many wasted years. I was blinded by your charm, until you stripped away the packaging. I was so disarmed, as you discarded the remnants of my dignity. So take a bow, now that you've robbed me of everything else. You played your part, as you knew you were breaking my heart. The curtains have drawn and your audience has left. My self respect gone, I just feel so bereft. Now take a bow, as that is all that time will allow.
