Forgotten Superstar

by Areeba   Apr 25, 2013


Althrough my life I worked
Entertained people with all my heart
Always been ther whenever my fans needed me
As I was talented they loved, appreciated, adored me from the very start

I dedicated myself wholly towards these people
I even ignored my family
Did not gave time to any single person
I just loved keeping myself busy

In this world, to be in everyone's eyes is a big thing
People loved me, my acting, my movies
They all gave me so much of importance
That I developed the attitude of I am what I am, I am above everything

But still my fans had a special place in my heart
It was their love which always encouraged me to act, to work
I was on the edge of glory
Never ever thought that one day my life will become a misery

Being on the top, I always had haters
Some silly unsuccessful people who were always jealous of me
I used to maintain distance from them, used to look at them from afar
Who cares man! I was a superstar

But who knew that they had this much of hate for me
That they will ruin my life to this extent
Never thought this pain will be eternal
Yes, I was an egotist but no I was never a criminal

These haters accussed me of some crime
Something which I never did
I was hard working man but I wasnt in this department
In my life it brought nothing but negativity, emptiness and disappointment

It threw me into the world of sorrows
For ten years of my life I was in jail
There was nothing, no air, no sun
And I was there paying for the things that I never done

I used to live in heaven and that place was hell
What I have been through what I have seen
I will never want anyone to go through the same
There was no love, no care, no limelight, no fame

Right now, I am here living in this tiny apartment
I have got nothing, I lost everything
Never understood what my fault was
These experiences have changed me a lot, I am not what I was

And those people whom I once called my fans
They just dont care about me anymore
Only my family stood by me
I will always be thankful to God that he gave me such family

Now I am nothing but a famous man of history
Someone who once ruled the movie industry
But now I am no close to that world, from those things I am far
Because now I am just a forgotten superstar
