Say Goodbye To Hollywood

Say goodbye to Hollywood
The glamour and the Grace
Before the trip came to the cliff
No amount of fame could save

Say Goodbye to Hollywood
Before the big melt down
Where the Stars last ride was a fall from the sky
Leaving behind their golden crown

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Goodbye to the golden age
Where what they had in the past
No longer is passe

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Where the direction that they lean
Is so far left in their heads
They believe their own make believe

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Goodbye to the royalty
Take it to the bank that what they think
Is no where near reality

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Turning heads from this train-wreck
It's more than sad this unmade bed
When all that's left is the shake of heads

I wouldn't want to be one of them with all the paparazzi following me and no privacy whatsoever; also it seems like even though they have a lot of money they have a lot of problems too….;drugs, alcohol, high divorce rates, etc. Good one Mike!:)

I really like this; it's a bit of a change from the usual poetry I see. Keep it up!!
