The Future


Time is passing ever quickly and soon you will be twenty five.
The echo of Twilight is resounding softly in your ears
As the end of an era fast awaits
As you run toward those open gates.
There'll be sadness felt at it's departure but you've never felt more alive.
The promise of things to come beckons in the distance
New portayals you can almost taste
A talent you can never waste.

Promotions for Water for Elephants with Oscar winning names
A joy to work on, interviews everyone will understand
As your bond with Rosie was inexplicable.
Your love of animals unassailable
A David Cronenberg film incites a riot through your veins
A role so very different from anything you've done before
Your excitement is uncontainable
Emotions intensely changeable

This is all in the future, an innovative future yet to come
I'll be on the side-lines, watching it unfold with bated breath
Contented in the happiness you feel
Impatiently agog with fervoured zeal
Every new film you make has my heart beating like a drum
So stride out Rob, your smiling face greeting the unknown
And sense my love as you take the wheel
Of life and love and keeping it real.
