Life was a rose that bloomed slowly.
Earth is our home filled with diamonds and animals and sunsets.
Safety first.
Never let your words become another tear-fall, or waterfall.
Lights, camera, action!
Let's get this movie started.
Life is like a movie.
These are the opening credits. The beginning was the song.
Now the action begins.
She falls in love and he leaves her.
She falls apart, but the plot is always different in that she
falls differently.
Wait! You could have cried a little less.
You shouldn't have so much stress!
Cut! Take two.
Cry a little less.
Release a little stress.
Lights, camera, action!
Let's get this movie started.

First off, love the picture. Really peaceful.
Now on to teh poem. Great use of imagery. Truly beautiful. I love your use of theatrical elements in this. I find it interesting because it shows movie-making as well as people trying to fit into whatever people think they should. So many times, people refuse to show their true feelings so as to follow what others say they should feel. As terrible as this is, we are all guilty of this.
Great job on this. It's very beautiful and meaningful. Best of luck in this contest -
