A Poetic Celebrity Confession-Yes I Did It My Way

I have been thinking about And in the end started to shout “This is my private thought!” My mind wanted and sought Then caught Deciding suddenly to halt Realizing something was at fault After swimming in the fantasy pool Visions teasing and cool A dream filled with images black and white ending in color Romantic stimulating coupled with a lover Could I have reached a goal? Turning nothing into gold Or was this a pending nightmare Ready for a scare Secured having everything Treated like a theatrical king Due to the way I sing Suddenly I wake Feeling like something went into me like a stake Reporter reported I was a fake Retreated to my Momma’s home Sat there with pie all alone Not answering texts on the cell phone This is what I am thinking about Fame game I needed to get out So, they ate me alive Knowing I am just an entertaining Idol taking a dive Called a honey in the hive With talent and buzz World knowing who I was For a second minute or hour I was a pop star celebrity with power
