All an ACT!

by silent turbulence   Aug 26, 2008


Smiling happy faces,
Shadowing over the gloom,
Like detangling a cluster of laces,
The drama is over, I assume.

Trust has always been at stake,
Whether it's for money, or for love,
Let's give this entire drama a break,
It's time to rise above.

Above all the things conceited and low,
Above all the deceit and hate,
Don't be shaken by the blow,
Be the master of your own fate.

Life is not black or white,
It is in shades of grey,
So nothing here is wrong or right,
Until, you are looked at as the prey.

Don't let yourself be attacked by the rest,
Guard yourself; hold your head up high,
This is time's true test,
Walk through it, don't let out a sigh.

Don't look around in disgust,
It's soon going to be gone,
This is a drama, everything here is just,
Remember, dusk is always followed by dawn.

Smiling happy faces,
Shadowing over the gloom,
Like detangling a cluster of laces,
The drama is over, I assume.
