The jester

The lights were faded down, the audience was gone
Dark silence covered the stage, the jester remained alone
He knew that he should go back into the other role
It became harder every time to find a passage to the other side
A traveller between two worlds
In search of his self
Never found a home
A part of him always got caught
In the brushwood of the no man’s land
Between the bounds

He sat there on the stage, the hall was breathing hard
There was a whisper in the dark, he thought to hear her voice
She was his only love, but his restlessness tired her too much
One day she stayed behind, he went further and didn’t look back
A traveller between two worlds
Little by little loosing his self
No longer searching for a home
A part of him was always left behind
In the no man’s land
Between the borderlines

Finally he left the hall, he went into the night
Clouds were raging at the sky, the moon was falling down
A single tear he cried, his make up began to smear
The last travel of a clown, with nowhere to arrive
A jester between two scenes
Got lost in the no man’s land
Between reality and dream
A traveller between two worlds
Missing in the no man’s land
Between the bounds

The stars were faded out, everyone is gone
Dark silence covers the world, a jester dies alone
