i feel myself slipping through the wind
unleashing my soul within
eyes leak in memory of you
and forgive myself for being the fool

i have no urge to scream
this pain cannot be mended by any means
who knew emptiness turns out to fill us with the worst of pain
pain that cannot be verbalized in any sentence or phrase

the closest it's had to having an explanation was in the tears we've shed
there's nothing about it that could be said
no one ever understands until they feel it
until they found the love that once made them feel sick

i stand here now, arms raised to my sides
no love, no pain, and no anger to hide
and now i know, finally, for just a few moments atleast,
how it feels to let my soul be free.
inspired by The Perks of Being a Wallflower and David Bowie's song "heroes" / the tunnel song.

Whether it be of Music or Acting, the stage goes silent again. The lights dimmed and as a singular light hits center. Although these performances here may end, I know the greatest one of all awaits ahead.

So don your garbs, and prepare your songs.
Recite your words, and ready the show.
Audience, line up dressed in your best, and gather inside to view.
The next show is about to begin, and the best is yet to come!

Take a Bow You Greats:
Lemmy Kilmister - David Bowie - Alan Rickman

All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.

~William Shakespeare~

* Thank You for your talents and being woven into the fabric of my life
3 extraordinary talents who have gone on, but leave us with such memories of them.

I am extremely saddened by the death
Of David Bowie, whom I never met,
But who has been part of my life for years;
Who stood head and shoulders above his peers.

A man whose music to many did speak,
Always different, forever unique.
Who was true to his art right to the end;
Who rightly deserves the title Legend.

So farewell David, and though you have gone,
Know that you and your music will live on.
For your innovation, your genius
Have become very much a part of us.
We have lost a true genius, a Legend
This is ground control to Major Tom:

We're really gonna miss you.
Thank you for all that you've done.
There will never be anyone quite like you.


Rock on in the aether,
you beautiful creature.

Most of us don’t even manage
To become a hero, just for one day
But the Starman came, he saw, he conquered
He blew our minds
A creative centipede
A shapeshifter
A kook
A man who sold his image to the world
And showed us that heroes still exist

— The End —
