Reel Reality
The final curtain has gone down
With lots of people and the talk behind their frown
Now under the table, there comes a person
That person to the world is an 'Actor'
That person to me is 'I'
From "lights! Camera! Action!"
To whine all day with no distraction!
And just as the story begins
.....not soo long
The schedule tickles.
As the night wakes me up!
The morning doesn't let me sleep!
This cruelty is hard to sneak.
Auditioning over a decade
Plastered on magazine
Those smiles,
These tears,
Those screams,
Which I fear.
Is hard to hide.
The mask that I wear
Or the heart they make me wear
That's how I face the world.
"Own your character"
Soaked in their secrets
"Escape in the roles"
Prune through their regrets
And when its a 'WRAP'
Go on with your lives.
Aaahh!
This fame, this light
This stardom so bright
Eats you up whole or leaves you slight
Hey! Wait! It's not over yet!
Let the guidelines slay!
Be careful of what you say!
Don't talk about "Terrorism"
You are just not an individual
Don't talk about "Religion"
Unless you want to end up in a prison
Don't just "Hang out"
The rumors may click out
Not even when the time rescues!
The rivals are never at amuse!
Being judged by hidden agendas
Not knowing the slightest of truth!
Being framed or being doomed
The casting couch
Is not afraid to bloom.
Not everything is like every day
Not every day is a good day
We too have ups and downs
Friends like crowns
Time like bomb
And life like any other
While you lost something,
I gained something.
A treasure to you,
Might be a pebble to me.
Life is still life!
To cherish is the only escape from the dark night.
