For the role can’t be played without opposition
They read from the script with no disposition
It’s every last character that plays their own part
They sing, dance, and laugh from the start
The jingle hums softly, so youthful and free
Light blinds with a quick flash ever so luminously
The dawn is fresh with blue skies and a breeze
It’s the kind of day that exists in perfect dreams
The characters meet and learn to feel
These new emotions are too vivid to be real
They hold one another and kiss, this is love
As innocent as a pair of cuddling doves
This love starts to grow and the characters are consumed
It seems as if this relationship bud, has finally bloomed
They love freely, care deeply, and hold the other close
The others envy their perfection, but these ones do not boast
Their love is enough reward for this partnership they have earned
The others rage jealously over this feeling they have not learned
They try to start fights because of their bitterness within
“Who wants to be in love anyway? Embrace the life of sin.”
Unable to be broken, our front couple prevails
With compassion so heavy, it’s tipping the scales
Gleaming with happiness, they separate from the herd
They stand there, admirably, as the man says these words:
“The happiness we hold dearly and can’t live without
Finds its sworn enemies in sadness and doubt
We must find our own way on this journey called life
It’s each person’s choice if its covered in dark or sprayed in light
These paths intertwine and are never out of sight
Whichever you may choose, be certain it’s worth the fight
For each day shouldn’t be a battle to stay on your course
Just accept our short days for they are no better or worse”
The characters and the audience stare silent and dazed
The couple exits as everyone sits quietly amazed
The curtain closes, leaving the hall dark
A spotlight illuminates the couples and the crowd starts to bark
It was no ordinary play with an inspirational theme
This was the show of a king, laced with our dreams
The performance is over, but the story’s not done
It continues everyday and the battle’s never won
Our days are filled with too much regret and doubt
We tend to lose sight of what life is about
Happiness, love, success, fun, and wealth
Can only be earned by playing the hand we are dealt
