on the spotlight
being removed
a glumness did dwell
within him
newer stars were capturing
every bit of luminescence
deep inside he felt
a bygone florescence
only those of enduring
fame
will ever keep alight
the everlasting flame
he knew not of how fleeting
kudos can be
one minute it is with you
then it can curiously flee
to-day he sits
in a gloomy shade
contemplating on an
unlit glade
