Fame

(To Pachi)

Fame is a strange thing....

it comes when you least expect it and brings your spirit to highs

you never knew....

Then just like it comes, it goes away and brings your spirit to lows you never knew....

It is a lesson to be learned when life gives you the power to see if you can handle it..

and then it takes it away to see if you can handle it as well...

It takes a lot of maturity to take this gift, to value it

takes a lot of maturity to let it go and not be bitter...

I welcomed fame..

I enjoyed it and when it went away

I always knew it would come back
