[hometext] => A poem about what too much fame can do to you.
[bodytext] => 15 till. The lights flash, all frenzying for a chance to blind the windows to my soul Their voices call to me with falsehoods characteristic of a mother's caress Nameless fingers graze my arms and legs, leaving traces I can feel forever after I idly wonder if I will ever find the power to push through this disaster 10 till. I slowly grow to realize that I enjoy this I suddenly feel a kind of high from their unfailing attention It's strange and foreign, yet I feel as though I've always known My being must be changing itself it adapt, to tune 7 till. They hang on my every word like parasites on God They can't let me go because they are nothing without me They're just living in a world I've furnished, clinging to my excellence It's a wonder I don't throw them out into a cold, unacknowledged existence 5 till. I've become hooked. I need this now. I can't let it slip out of my hands. Time is too quickly escaping my demands. 3 till. They cling to me and I cling back We need each other to survive, it's the only way They know that, they must Without each other we would both be dust 1 till. It's almost gone, a full moon just beginning to wane I would do anything to keep it now, but there is nothing I don't know how to live without it anymore I don't know if I will live evermore 2 past. Fled into the shadows of the night I'm bleeding on a sidewalk, all alone A gaping whole left in spite Did my heart not once beat in that site?
