Fame and Stardom

Attainment of success, stardom and fame Remains the ultimate dream of many Who seek the publication of their name Upon the future pages of history The journey to such a destination Requires effort and dedication Those who at last gain such recognition Enjoy a well deserved satisfaction Some celebrities who make this journey Find coping with this new life can be rough There's an invasion of their privacy And the demands of stardom can be tough They then turn to some drug to ease the stress Whether it's alcohol or other stuff Soon their entire life can become a mess And dealing with it's pressures can be rough Bouts of anxiety and depression Are what they have to endure constantly Some develop a serious addiction That may lead to suicidial tendency Women tend to choose a gentler ending Like drug overdose or a means that's neat Some may opt to end it all by hanging Mindful not to mess up the body sheath Some men go for a violent ending By putting a bullet through their own head Others jump off a bridge or tall building Seeking to ensure that they will be dead Those aspiring to fame and stardom Pursue your dream and goal diligently Just be mindful of how things can become And seek to be guided accordingly Whitney Houston(singer, actress) – drug overdose L'Wren Scott(fashion designer, model) - hanging Kurt Cobain(singer, songwriter) – bullet to head Tony Scott(Academy award winning actor) – jumped off bridge
