I’m carrying a horrendous scar,
When into the ravine I crashed.
My dream of being a superstar
Is catastrophically dashed.
Wanted to be a celebrity,
Jetting the world over.
Now have to face up to reality,
But my decisions on this waver.
Is there meaning to continue?
Everyday is a brutal reminder.
Can’t swallow the ridicule ---
If only life had been kinder!
Here I kneel,
Praying to overcome this dent.
Time is said to heal,
So I’m waiting for the moment.
