The Road To Fame

So many try to go
Down that road
So many try, to make the attempted
To go down there.
So many go, but only a
Few make it all
The way.
The ones who make it
They are heard from
Again and again.
But  the ones who fall
Through the cracks.
Who trip, stumble an fall
Down the road.
Are never heard from again
They become angry, upset
And depressed.
They seek love,
But everyone turns them away.
Telling them that they
Chose that path,
That was their decision.
They live on the streets,
They hungry
Not only for food
But for love.
No one cares about them
There is no one out there.
So many try to go down
That road,
But only a few make it.
That road promises
So much.
But only some get it.
That road
Has led countless people
To shattered lives.
At the beginning of that road
Is a sign
That reads,
“The Road to Fame”
And that what draws people
Spiraling down
Down
Down.
