Stage looks fantastic
Decoration is so real
I see the clouds and sky
Trees and birds
I even see the mountains
And fog too
It is raining
Thundering so loud
Lightening strikes with a bang
The theater trembles
My heart stops for a second
Stage crew is so engrossed
Taking it as
A matter of life and death
The arguments
The possessions
Even the Jealousy looks real
Then the drama starts
Actors and actresses
Working hard
All dialogues sound so real
Suddenly I found
My own self on stage
A part of this drama
I begin to weep
And I don't know why
Is it some thing I have lost
Or is it some one who has left
My heart aches
I find it difficult to breath
The pain takes over me
I fall down to my knees
Thinking I might die
I pray to Lord , asking Why ?
I see others around me
Each one suffering
Due to their own perception
Feeling hurt
Feeling taken for granted
Some planning a revenge
Others planning to end this misery
Some are on drugs now
Some have given up hope
I fall down to ground
My eyes closed
My body shivering
My arms folded on my chest
I don't want to feel any thing
Suddenly
Lightening strikes again
Numbing my brain
I am back in audience
Shocked to have seen
And have felt what I have felt
My God, it was so real
I want to get up
And applaud
But instead
I just get up
And leave
