If Life were a Movie

What if Life were a Movie?

If life were a movie,

Good would triumph evil,

Every time.

Every single bullet would find its way to its victim.

We could have second takes,

Have coffee breaks,

Never having to worry about failure.

If life were a movie,

We would be the actors to anothers show,

Our fate in their hands,

Faith held together by words.

Stunt doubles would take the hits,

And our bruises would pain another.

Love would prevail,

He would get the girl

And they’d ride into the sunset on horseback,

To be happy forever.

If life were a movie,

Our thoughts would be open for another audience,

Every scene of senserity will be viewed by others.

We would never be alone.

Never feeling the emptiness of seclusion,

Nor the warmth of welcome.

 But life is not a movie,

Evil can rule our world,

And consume it,

Our ammo runs out,

We only get- one take.

We can’t pause,

Freeze-frame.

We can’t stop,

We will mess up,

And this show…

This show is ours.

Our fate is our own,

We take the blows,

Love…

May never pull through,

Because that man cannot hold his love

So he takes the loss of a lovely girl,

Never riding into the sunset.

Yeah, You’ll be alone at times,

Sometimes it will seem like your only friend is a mirror.

In dark ditches of  despair,

Without comforting smiles,
There won’t be simple trials,

You’ll find rivals,

But our moments will be our own,

Unviewable on dvd,

If life were a movie, I’m sure some of you won’t complain,

Enjoying blissful walks with a stranger,

Along cardboard roads to that place over the rainbow,

Because to feel life,

Love,

Loneliness

To learn,

To be… you.

You have to be part of it.

The person behind the curtain,

Who doesn’t grant wishes,

But finds the truth.
