Name

I am Name, the leader of the cast.
If all should fall, then I shall be the last.
Invisible, beyond what players see,
The play would be for nought, if not for me.
And so we're at the start, where I begin.
For them, I stand without; for you, within.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Showbiz takes a lot of talent. Isn't Broadway the hardest venue? Some day I'll go to watch a popular play. I like these motivational poems.

A wonderful one with introspective indepth and realistic flow. The last line is the crux. The confidence with charismatic leadership in the 2nd line is praiseworthy
