| IN SEARCH OF STARDOM | | THERE WERE MILES TO GO BEFORE SHE REACHED | | THE PLACE SHE MEANT TO BE
DRIFTING ON, SHE SADLY WEEPED
UNTIL A GLIMMER OF HOPE CAME INTO VIEW.
THERE WERE MILES TO GO BEFORE SHE THOUGHT
IT WAS HIGH TIME SHE GAVE UP
HER TROUBLED SOUL WITH THE BATTLE FOUGHT
KEPT PRAYING FOR AN EASY WAY OUT
THERE WERE MILES TO GO BEFORE THE SUN BEGAN TO SET,
AND THE BURDEN OF DISAPPOINTMENT SET IN
THE GOAL WITH WHICH SHE BEGAN WAS
NOW NOWHERE TO BE SEEN
SHE BEGAN WITH ANGER AND ENDED WITH RAGE
SHE PULLED HER HAIR AND HATED HER IMAGE
WITH ABJECT SHAME OF ABONDONING HER HOME
THERE WERE MILES TO GO BEFORE SHE SET ON FOOT
AND PUT TO THOUGHT WHAT SHE HAD LOST
WAS IT RIGHT TO HAVE NEGLECTED
THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS WITH WHOM SHE FLOCKED
THERE WERE MILES TO GO WHEN SHE REACHED
THE PLACE SHE WANTED TO BE
HAVING LOST WHAT ALL SHE HAD AND LOVED
SHE WAS SINKING IN THE SEA
THE SEA OF TREACHOURY
THE SEA OF SORROW
THE SEA OF FAME
THE SEA WITH HER TOMMOROW
HER HAPPINESS WHEN SHE WOULD REACH HER GOAL
SHE WOULD: SMILE THE SMILE SHE LONGED TO SMILE
SHE WOULD LAUGH THE LAUGH THAT WOULD TAKE A WHILE
TO TAP INTO HER SOUL
THERE WERE HOURS TO GO UNTIL SHE’D SEE
HOW RAW HER BARGAIN WAS
HOW SHE MAY HAVE SOLD HER SMILE
FOR A DREAM THAT WAS’NT HER’S
THERE WERE MINUTES NOW TO FIND HERSELF
WHAT ALL SHE’D LOST TO GAIN
A GAIN THAT WAS’NT TO BE
WHAT HER LIFE HAD BEEN ALL ABOUT
SOLITUDE RAN THROUGH HER VIENS
THERE WERE SECONDS TO GO SHE GAVE ALL SHE HAD,
AND TOOK A TURN BACK TO HUMANITY
SEEKING REDEMPTION FROM HER “WORLD”
SHE CAME BACK TO HER FAMILY……………………………………
