Fame is a bitch elusive
and cold, wooing young men
till they all wind up old
What is an Insufficient Sacrifice.
How long can one
hold onto a dream,
clutched tight in the cusp
of thier weary hand,
cradled for so long in
the half-mooning of one's heart,
as the soul melts into realizations
of all that is left undone,
while the dream becomes
dust motes floating chaotically,
in sunbeams that
can never be as bright,
as the gleam in my eyes
back in the summers of my youth.

Life becomes an
escalator running backwards,
no matter how fast
you scramble towards,
what you expected
to find waiting above,
you wind up tragically being
drawn in the opposite direction,
returning back to where it all began.

Love and fame
are prized tickets,
handed to you
quite unexpectedly,
but it is the stages you alone
choose to dance across,
that will bring you warm hugs,
passion and glory,
or simply an alley door exit,
grasping the torn tatters
of another chance,
ripped in half and
no longer worthy,
of the grand everlasting
beauty each one
once promised.

I am now but a
stretched tendril,
of all that I hoped to be,
spanning many years
of being pulled by fate,
into something resembling
a single guitar string,
tightly strung out as
the final note wails,
all of the sorrows
of what I was,
unable to ever
truly orchestrate

I believe we all find a portion of whatever we're looking for... whatever we desire most.

It's just never enough.

I still love roller coasters.
But, I'll never again relive the thrill of that first ride

Thanks for your deeply thought out comment, I am in full agreement. Achieving and advancing in the music business is a emotional drug full of highs and lows but oh, the buzz when you are making it big time, or you are rocking out an appreciative crowd with seemingly endless encores. But even the highest and greatest of rock and roller coasters sometimes goes backwards,breaks down or stops At those times it is never enough.

Its a bit dark on just getting a fan base , But enjoyed the listen MFB

Well, without a fan base anywhere you play will be dark and empty so dark is befitting, glad you enjoyed the listen.

Thats for sure , good job 1
