Acts of Life Lived On a Stage

Everybody's life is played Magically upon a stage Shown in front of everyone Till our show is finally done No more acts to play and share The curtains drawn--we disappear Into a different time and space No more make-up on your face Making you a shining star But covers who you really are Someone trying to get through The acts of life we have to do New emotions every day From re-writes that come our way Never knowing how to feel Sometimes it just doesn't seem real As we're acting out our parts From the moment that we start Breathing on this planet earth Ever since our time of birth We have people in our lives Husbands, teachers, bosses, wives Friends and kids--outsiders too Scripting us our lifetime through Adapting to all the scenes Every feeling in between Drama, joy and happiness Love, enjoyment, even death Will fill each and every page Of our life upon this stage That we should try and make grand A show so big it fills the land With everybody's acting skills Giving other actors thrills They can use between the pain That will come time and again On the stage were up then fall Until our final curtain call
