Why This?

If a book is your life
And a pencil is a knife
How much pain would you endorse
To make a writing score?
Would you go big or go home?
Would you accept damage to your dome?
Is your life worth fame?
Will you play with it like a game? 
Or will you fall apart?
Just out of nowhere
Losing all rhythm
Just like a movie
Where the hero dies
Right in the middle 
Will your book imitate
What's happened here
Falling apart
Till the end
Just like my life
To this knife
