Our Play

The curtain is
about to unveil...

All the hours of practice,
of dialogues exchanged
behind the scenes,
of emotions and drama
entwining dreams with action,
of mis-timed cues
and comic timings
sailing through...

The curtain is
about to unveil...

Jitters and prayers
to break-a-leg,
poking questions: Standing ovation-
will that greet us
or will we face
all empty chairs?

The curtain is
about to unveil...

As i sit here in the wings
and know i can do no more
than wait and watch
all my hours of toil
and biting nails
being over now...
the theatre of life
begins its refrain...
