As the curtains fall
And people stand up to cheer,
With all their applause
As others break down in tears.
Of a love story
That two hearts apart
No one could tear,
Through struggles
Each other’s burden
Together they bear,
Through trials
They get down on their knees
And put them in prayer,
Through joy
They count their blessings
As they sit down to share,
Through disputes
They forgive and forget
And show each other they care,
As the cast take a bow
And the feeling of love is in the air,
As the lights dim
And everybody has left their chairs,
True love is a story
That each heart needs to bear.
By E. Alubaka Asher
