Celebrity *resubmitted*

by ~*^*~ longing to belong ~*^*~   Oct 22, 2004


Celebrity lies,
Celebrity truths,
Celebrity highs,
Celebrity lows,
Celebrity hair,
Celebrity clothes,
Celebrity affairs,
Celebrity lives,

We fit ourselves,
Into their moulds,
Desperately,
Trying to keep hold.

Celebrity births,
Celebrity deaths,
Celebrity mirth,
Celebrity wit,
Celebrity pain,
Celebrity recoveries,
Celebrity shame,
Celebrity histories,

Surround ourselves,
In their business,
Hoping to forget,
Our own personal distress.

Celebrity lies,
Celebrity truths,
Celebrity highs,
Celebrity lows,
Celebrity hair,
Celebrity clothes,
Celebrity affairs,
Celebrity lives,

Are our own.

    This is a fantastic poem... unique treatment of an omni-present feeling of emptiness, chaos, lack of self-worth, and all the other emotions from which we attempt to hide within ourselves! Very nice. :)
