A Play Within A Play

Vanquished silence soothes the mind, the fighter in me never dies. I change the plot so I can beat it – a play within a play and only I can see it. On a stage inside my head, lights shine brightly incandescent, over and over I see my movements casting shadows all around me. All are waving wildly like they see me throwing off a shroud then standing up and walking freely into how I want to be me.
