Cast and Crew of Heaven

In the cast and crew of heaven
Where the curtain never falls
You are a beautiful actress
Doomed to dance forever

Your hair, now long and brown,
Shimmers around your shoulders
Your eyes, dark hazelnut,
Show echoes of a past you don't remember

Your hands, they reach
For the faces of those living 
Your smile, unfaltering 
Only remembered by a few
