THE STORY OF A SUPERSTAR


There was a girl who in the church was singing
She loved it very much and to be a star was thinking
She dreamed that she will be a star and famous some day
And to be admired by people closed to her and by those far away.

One day her dream became reality
And she became famous in actuality.
All over the world somebody her voice could hear
And a beautiful feeling in somebody's heart to appear.

She was happy that everybody knew her
And most girls wanted to be like her.
But there was a fear in her heart more and more
That some day she will not be wanted anymore.

She became a celebrity; that was her fate
But she could not bear that weight.
The price to pay was excessive fear
Which was eating her and it would not disappear.

She got married to live a wonderful life
But unfortunately turned out to be a continuous strife.
Things turned out to be very different than she thought
Unfortunately in a net of endless problems she was caught.

The pain was unbearable and could not be decreased
Because her uneasy feeling and problems were increased.
So to her situation she tried to find a solution
But regrettably she chose a dark resolution

To find happiness in an artificial way
That did not bring happiness to her dismay.
Additional problems resulted in more fear
And finally one thing became clear.

In the complicated situation that she was involved
Which seemed reclusive and difficult to be solved.
Every day there was a struggle to survive
And her life was diminished to barely staying alive.

For a while she stopped to sing and her fans to entertain
Because her body and soul was engulfed by the pain.
She was isolated from what she loved the most
And the glory and the glamour seemed forever lost.

Her mind and soul were hoping that one day
Would bring her back from a life so gray,
And that her singing will be revived once more
And this time she will find joy and hapiness galore.

But more and more the dream seemed so far away
And she longed to have again a glamorous day.
However; one day her heart stopped to beat
And she rose to the heavens and the Angels to meet.

Her family and all the world were grieving
Because from this world she was leaving.
Her family could not sustain their cries
And tears continually covered their eyes.

The person that they loved most in the heaven was going
Their heart was broken and their grief was growing.
She was leaving them devastated behind
But they were next to her with their heart and mind.

They are hoping that finally she will find eternal rest,
The peace she wanted and her soul to be blessed.
Life without her will no longer be the same
And for ever will be in their lips her name.

To the rest of the world her songs were an inspiration
And every person for her had an admiration
She was their idol, a talent that touched their heart
In their happiness and sadness her songs played a part.

And now they learned in the news that the super star they adore
Stopped to breathe and is not alive anymore.
But, her amazing voice will not be lost in vain
Even if their hearts are overcoming with pain.

Now, she sings with the angels and to her fans she blows a kiss;
Oh yes, now at last she found eternal happiness and peace.
Her immortal voice has a special place in each fan's heart
And her songs will keep her memory alive and never apart.
