Meaning of Life

Slow motion takes place among the midst of all the excitement.
For a moment,
Time is captured and frozen.
A Stop is made,
And all the features of life are held in the air.
One is reminded of a movie director-
He is the sole Beholder.
Control of All is in His Hands.
Actors/Actresses- those who think themselves important,
Are but follies of their own imaginations.
The Truth is merely beyond the boundaries of Materialism,
Very simple, yet so hard to find.
A Chance for one to find the Creator,
A feeling closer than one felt by a baby finding its Mother.
The Blur continues to dishevel us,
Make us unhappy and incomplete,
Thus the path is not crowded.
Only the lucky few may be able to find their way.
Those are the chosen ones.
Those are the ones saved for eternity.
They shall feel accomplished and assured.
Happiness shall prevail and remain for the very Few.
Alas for the misguided travelers.
Those are doomed and hopeless feelings shall never leave them.
They will swim in the churns of the dark sea,
They will be Unable to drown
Nor to find solace of any kind.
Time shall have no meaning.
Cut! Stop! Action!

This is indeed very good. The varied line lengths really make this piece sizzle and your point is well taken and established. Great way to end it too. J.
