Cast in this unlikely role,

With insufficient tact,
One must put up barriers
To keep oneself intact.
Living in the Limelight,
The universal dream,
For those who wish to seem.
Those who wish to be,
Must put aside the alienation,
Get on with the fascination,
The real relation,
The underlying theme.
Living in a fisheye lens,
Caught in the camera eye.
I have no heart to lie,
I can't pretend a stranger,
Is a long-awaited friend.
All the world's indeed a stage,
And we are merely players,
Performers and portrayers,
Each another's audience,
Outside the gilded cage.
