Curtains open. The
film begins.
Hero or villain –
which one wins?
They fight within
us every day
in how we act or
what we say.
Our lives are like
a big movie
that’s scripted by
ourselves, you see.
Our laughs, our loves
are what we choose.
But some mistakes
we’d like to lose.
Forgive them all.
It’s part of life.
They can be judged
as human strife.
Ending credits
begin to scroll.
Watch carefully for
signs of soul.
Curtains close.
The end is here.
Time for critics to
boo or cheer.
This cinelife is
now all through.
Another film will
start anew!
