Life or movie free verse poem -

Life or Movie
Life in a movie is simple.
True, there is horror
fear, conflict, and countless death,
In a movie.
But movies always have happy endings.
Real life is hard.
There is still horror,
Fear, conflict, and countless death
In our world today.
But when is our story going to end?
And when it does end,
How will it end?
So, what do you think?
Sometime this feels true, and sometimes it doesn't.
I want to be an author someday, so any constructive criticism is appreciated!

I really liked this! It was really well structured, with the first part being about a movie and the second about real life, so the comparison was really easy to see. I particularly enjoyed the symmetry between the two halves, because both followed the same pattern and had elements of repetition which really put the message across. Write as much as you like and post as much as you like! I'd love to read a bit more.

This is awesome! The questions really make you think.
If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first
