Fade Up

 

So it’s never really over

Not like in the movies

Real life continues on-

Reel after reel

 

And that’s probably a good thing

Because ideas captured in a moment

Have a tendency to change over time

Even if the time is short

 

And that’s where I find myself now

Turning the page

And finding the that the show goes on

All the players came back for another day

 

And I guess I’m the only one

Who didn’t realize that directing the show

Only counts when you aim the camera

And in life, everyone gets a lens

 

Funny how you are sometimes

The last to the party

And no matter how much you put into the preparation

Life has a way of just running its own course

 

So friends will be friends

And all the things that we enjoy

Keep rolling right along

 

And apparently it counts

Even when unsaid-

Although saying it out loud

Thankfully makes it all a little better
