What is life?
What does it represent?
Many people ask this question
And come up with many answers
They say it's like a bicycle
Or it's like a ball of wire
But what does life really mean
To me?
I would say that life is a film
Yes, the ones we watch in the cinemas and home
They begin at the moment we are born
And end when we are no more
We are all talented actors
Because we're acting our own stories
But unlike the movies we watch
We always act spontaneously
We've never known other actors in our story
But we always acknowledge their characters
They're family and friends
Or just fearful enemies
When you feel your character fading
You know your time is over
You ended your nameless movie
And walked away from the set
Some believe in heaven and hell
This uses the same concept
But it certainly would determine
Whether your character was successful or flopped
Some actors keep acting in films
And get bored by it
Isn't there any way
To escape this cycle?
The answer to that question
Is to realise who you really are
Behind your character
That you portray in your films
Look within you
Find out your true self
Behind this facade
And you'll be a free man
