behind the life I lead...
Behind The life I lead…
My double life,
Make an effort to engage, though I feel lost
In a noisy world.
Make my face smile.
Because my face forgets to look interested.
Plan my furniture walk from one room to another.
Anticipate where you might freeze.
Get my timing right to sand up,
It’s going to hurt and be awkward.
Remember to make it look easy.
And then there is the dreaded question asked.
How are you?
I am fine, an automated reply.
Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.
In my double life
