about my constant facade with the world...and how we as people can forget our own identity when we are forced to fit a mould of expectancy
because i have started my painful withdrawal
fate and perfection elude me once again
as my fate is one cast into the bowells of irony
seemingly so, my smile so bright
acting so good now, i think i deserve an oscar
because this movie is going 24/7 and this pain i will hide forever
you would only see the star
smiling and laughing in character
but when that shell breaks as the curtains fall
the scars resurface after
u see the make up is my smile
and the wardrobe is my actions
all made to appear fine
fine to you, the audience who waited in line
to see this actor work every day, 24 hours at a time
ive been acting so long that ive forgotten about who i am
i cant wait for this movie to end so that i can find my soul
so director, cut and print...go to credits
see the long list of persons which made this movie worth watching
have you had your fun? laughed and eat your popcorn?
now this movie is done....and my life has just begun
