Was almost there ....missed it

Hello my beloved people ....let me take you through a story of a young man , totally lost in his thoughts , dreams ,aspirations , a different outlook of the way he viewed the world wading through life's chores to destination undefined. A person who started with myriad images in his childhood , vague perspectives in his youth , still searching for the true calling beckoning his talent .
Yep he is the protagonist of the play which does not have an ending as per the director !!! However let us consider the effort put in by our hero of the day to save face for himself and his band of members , the effort to uphold the reputation of his expectation setting done with himself as a person, and with souls who are a part of the rosy picture he sees for himself and for them day after day.
The effort was worth it, keeping in mind the change of strategy he had devised for himself some years back . He was an actor who was highly popular among folks. He was a constant source of entertainment and laughter for all who surrounded him, and clapped at his antics . There was a world of adulation he was living in and surely hoped that time would show him the picture perfect image of him ranked among those successful .
Time and experiences had something different  in store for him . People came and moved out of his life , each one of them with their own success stories and accomplishments but our beloved actor was left where he had started, still a muse without a worth !!! He suddenly realised that his surroundings and the people living in them had moved along in their lives , were quite happy and satisfied , and were still fulfilling their insatiable desires for more. He too shared the same feelings but he still had to make a start .
Reality check was I guess done too late by him . But he decided to catch the bus as long as it is there at the stop. He frantically made attempts to save the act which he had so indegeniously  designed for himself . He set a timebomb for himself and started working his way in making utilization of whatever was left of his life to reaching the goal.. His daily struggles led him across different geographies , people , environment all having their  own selfish motives to fulfill . He was being used as a scapegoat , a stepping stone , an unappreciated individual who had to dig deep within him to still carry on with his endeavours . There were instances when promises were made to him but only to be broken , an image created only to be destroyed . Expectations started crashing since his hard work and toil was not reaping benefits . It just went down the drain . He still stands in the middle of nowhere wondering what went wrong as far as his actions or luck , still visualizing the happy life he had wanted , searching for answers , trying to catch the air in his hands !!!!
