A Drama Like No Other

~A Drama Like No Other~

She is helpless
They are hopeless
And have been damaged beyond repair

She fought hard
Tried her best 
Alas her breath left long ago

But the curtains still fall
People do bawl
As the sound of steps fills the crowded halls

But with a woosh the curtains come alive
Revealing what has been inside

The girl stands strong and proud and in awe
As she hears the audience applaud

An encore for more fills the crowded space
And as she takes a bow in place
She reads her final words out loud, which quiet the loud place.

    “All work must come with creation
Be original and sweet
Life has words filled with wonder
Please listen to its beat.
Everyday is a special gift
So live life to its fullest.
Do the things you want to do, Like kissing the guy of your dreams, Getting on a certain team, Do the things you want to do, Become the person you want to be”

Fire

Have you ever felt fire?
Have you ever watched it burn?
Have you ever watched the sun until your eyes felt burnt?
Have you ever seen the smoke?
Have you ever felt it too?
Have you ever felt it fill your lungs, making you incapable to talk?
The heat is so immense
The smoke, so intense
It’s a wonder how we love it when we watch the world freeze in the end
Have you ever felt the pain?
From a burn by the flame?
So do you know what fire’s like?
Have you ever sunk in it’s pain?
Do you know what fire’s burns are like?
Have you ever fallen victim to the flame?
