The Life is a Theatre
An alarm clock, morning…. I meet a new day.
The wind is knocking on the window from the yard.
A comb, a powder, a bag, a cup of tea…
I put on a mask. It's time to go!
What awaits me: resentment or affection?
Oblivion or a wreath of glory ?
I play and change my masks,
My clothes, makeup, movements, and voice.
There is no place for fatigue,
I burst into the dialogues in haste ...
I wanted to be a muse or a goddess.
But in the play there is only the role of a reliable shoulder.
And I solve life equations
With a calm and steady hand.
I draw inspiration from the ordinary things,
And provide others with care and peace.
During a theater run
Vanity does not torment me.
I turn a scary dragon
Into a lazy home cat.
The day is over. I won’t disturb the evening.
The violin and oboe will warm it up.
I take the mask off, and strip my soul.
And I become myself again…
Iryna Akimova
