I've played live for audiences so large.
I've danced with the greatest.
I've sang for fans who faint in my presence.
Why am I so alone?

People would sell their souls to meet me.
Grown men cry when they see me.
Magazines rave my home.
So why do I feel lonely?

Fame brings fortune.
Fortune does not bring happiness.
Happiness is love, and friendship.
Is that why I'm so alone?

Sometimes I walk through neighborhoods, looking for a companion.
No one appears.
They call me Wack Jacko.
How could I be so loved, and hated, and still be so alone.

Tribute to the King of Pop. May your songs live forever.

Michael Jackson is one of my favorite singers of all time. No matter what newspaper tabloids throw out their, I will only seem him as who he is inside: a lovable, lonely friend.

Beautiful post! It sums up exactly how Michael felt,its good too know there are some fans on here. Btw,why do poems and or any posts about him hardly ever get rated? And if they do its always a 1? Thats crazy,screw the haters!!!
