Literary: The show doesn’t end with a bow

The show doesn't end with a bow
The curtains won't drop in this tragedy
Make no mistake
You've already played your part
You've already delivered your powerful lines
You've already raised your sword high

But from one scene to another
Your case is no different
You won't get a standing ovation
You won't even get the audience's applause
You're just the actor that you are
You act

Those who live to tell tales have acted at least once
And you're no different
You do your role
And you go down in history
Yet you won't be remembered
Because you're just a side character here

All the preparations
Yet you're not prepared enough
You gave your best performance
You tried to shatter expectations
You even churned everybody's emotions
But something was still off

Was it worth it?
Yes there's always the second show for this season
But are you sure it won't be the same as today?
Will you be in the second run
Or will you just run away?
It's your decision

Once the curtains rises
There's no turning back
Either you follow your script
Or you break character
It's your choice

Go ahead and ask yourself
Do you really need the applause?
Do you have to keep pretending
For everyone else to see you as you are?

It's do or die in a tragedy
Things are done to make more things happen
Now will you do it?

This show doesn't end with a bow
Because it doesn't have to

The stage has always been set for you to do more
