I never wanted
to be famous
I hated flashing lights
seeking attention
and instant recognition
I hated misplaced priorities
seeking validation
and instant gratification
I never wanted
to be famous
I know it’s fickle
extremely difficult
and overly consuming
I know it’s addictive
can be deceptive
and sometimes controlling
I never wanted
to be famous
I heard it’s lonely
mostly tormenting
and even confusing
I loved my privacy
living unnoticed
with no recognition
I never wanted
to be famous
but now
it’s the only thing
I think of
Mariam Shittu
This poem is all about how celebs live and their unhappiness so just by reading this poem you get a picture of how those glamorous famous people are behind the scene.
Totally! It truly depicts the reality of their world. The poem was inspired by a movie I saw.
Deep
Light at the end of the tunnel 🙌🙌🙌🙌
This used to be my plight but now I see the light!
