he had internal conflicts
to contend with
demons
that wouldn't be subdued
or suppressed
he had a career
mapped out
in the entertainment industry
future fame
making it even bigger
on the American music scene
the day he passed away
nothing was straight in his mind
the woes of his personal life
came to a head
he was found hanging
on a motel room door
a young man
with much to look forward to
yet his woes
wouldn't disband
the music stopped
for him...
abridged
cut short
from life he did abort
