I want to be an actress not for the life of fame
Don’t want to be celebrated
I just want to show people an answer
Wish to help them know the way
I want to be seen by people who need salvation
People who can find it in me

Hey, I'm an acting student myself- so I really know what you're talking about here. I like the way you expressed this feeling, it was very well done. 'Brevity is the soul of wit'. Thank you for entering this poem into the contest-

I agree, some of my favorite actors and actresses are the ones that really evoke emotion in me and make me believe that they are not just people reciting rehearsed lines and crying when they really aren't going through a situation like that...
I definitely agree with the quote, a true actor or actress is someone who you makes you actually have to stop and think..."wait, is this a movie?" lol
good job
very true short poem
