"Theatre Of Life" (Sept 2006)

Our Dreams Sets The Stage As The Curtain Opens.
We've Missed Our Cues And Forgotten Our Lines,
But Somehow Up To Now The Ratings Remain On Top
We've Been Given Strict Roles For This Life
We've Never Given Chance To Attend A Rehearsal,
But We Must Not Fail To Please The Crowd.
As Uncomfortable As It Seems
To Perform Along Side A Cast
Who Remains In Constant Shadow
Behind A Fictional Character.
Still No One Who Knows Our Parts,
Our Entrances And Exits.
We Consistently Wait For The Curtain To Fall,
And The House Lights To Go Out.
But Our Lives Wont End That Easily.
The Show Must Go On.
So We'll Write Our Own Script
And Highlight Our Lines,
While We Still Got Time
So In The End
They Got Something To Remember Us By

by Justin Michael Milani
