A Play within A Play

I, another spectating spore

Amid this sea of applauding roar

For the grand curtain has drawn

That mythical world flashed gone

How I wish to my reality, it progress

Sick of this perpetual forced egress

Like a droplet on a seawave's crest

The ocean summon, their play I belong

Born and bound to sing their song

But mind, my own, that world i longed

While I dread... while I dread

A trace of reason struck my head

O Man O Man! How did I not see,

That world cannot live without the sea

O Man O Man! How did I not see,

It has become a part of me

And all that we do or did

Is but a play within a play 

   for a play within a play

inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's A Dream within a Dream structure, written with a realist twist.
