Life's A Show

By RetroMelon

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Life's A Show We all are handed a role by God We do mostly out of improv Some of us get kicked off In death, sucide, diseases Plagues,war murder which I am to famliar with The list always go on, our favortite perfect characters in our lifes dropped like a fly Life's A Show you don't get to rehearse No time to prepare Cause the script is already wrote The big moments all laid out for you Some little and subtle Some aren't, but you just go along with it In your improvastion Its what you do afterwards that counts Anyways right? Thats what makes the character you It what gives us purpose fullfilling, But we already are cast Our friends, family and battles We can't stop, only the selfish alterntives of Self-infliction of death Theres heavan Limbo And hell Guess where we are... Limbo We play are roles right We get our second chances in the Form of reincarnotion Then our final desitnation comes Then we either go to heavan or hell Or of course we have apolyspes The End Of Days will come But we won't live that long Cause in our script... Humanity is what kills off humanity But since lifes a show We all do play our parts But maybe If it comes out wrong Play it like a musical Sing a happy song Pray that it works Lifes a show Hope your friend doesn't die In any form Lifes a show You have no f* clue But were are stuck in Limbo And every choice we make Leads to the ending scene I am here I am not going to leave God gave me a role to play And when I die I want to die No living longer for me No being scared Its weird In my reality I am just really not scared of dieng it self I know its already written I am just more scared how it is going to happen But I remember Lifes A Show And I have been given a role I will play it right Show my true self, and not mock what others do I don't try to be diffrent Or alike Cause I have been given a role And every verse I sing Can make it that much worse I am me thats what I have been chosen to be One day I will never sing Give me something to sing about Because I refuse to have to cover what I am Go on in being yourself, take what the writers throw at you The death, the pain, the loss It will be over one day Its what you choose to do after every single big moment that counts Because if you give up your choice is made No more limbo No heavan Cause you have to remember Lifes but a show Life is just this Wounds can only heal By living If you go on One day it'll stop And you realized I was right that lifes just a show And we all play our partsOKAY BIG HONKING LETTERS FOR YOU WHO DARE SUE ME READ BELOW: Disclaimer- The idea comes from the creative, yet jack@$$ey Joss Whedon and who ever else wrote that song "Lifes a Show" For Buffy the musical, I may have used some of Whistlers words to I don't know, I can assure sueing me would be worthless I have nothing.
