Here is a poem that I wrote for MJ. It's titled "An Ode to the Legend - Michael Jackson!!"
Those eyes so beautiful, that heart-warming smile
I wonder what pain they hid every while
You were that beautiful person gifted as such
With talents unmeasurable and Brilliance as much
For what in the world can connect all the people
Is the hurt that’s piercing and unbearable
The magic of your soul turned pain into art
When you were devoid of Love from the start
You decided to be an angel, spreading Love all while
You healed with that music, you healed with your smile
And that selfless expression of Love carved the best in you
Because you decided to let your soul direct every move
And there would always be Jealousy and Judgement
But Jackson will always be above that predicament
Because you were the soul that dared to care
To share those pains, you were always there
And these are but people who should look into your eyes
Because they reflect your innocence as we surmise
You were and will always be the King of Hearts
Your Love would always Shine you apart
Oh My Peterman! Who never wanted to die
That child-like warmth you could never hide
You left us is still a fact we can’t overcome
The World needed more of you, not these scums
I hate the way they think Oh dear, confusing Love with Lust
And all that their eyes say, fill us in disgust
For if it were pain you started from, you ended in it as well
No they won’t see your Words that Heal, ‘Cause they’re just Cruel
And I know each heart with pain will agree to each word you said
Blindfolded with lies, they shut their eyes and mark you as “Bad”
I wonder how many people out there have had the courage as you
The Earth did cry as you departed, for you dedicated a song for her too
You’ve set an example of how great a human being can really become
By crafting your pain to art, and plunging to help everyone
A person grounded with nature, an artist so true
In my life, I will always look up to you
Your brilliance can never be overshadowed by these lies
You know you were loved, you know we still cry
At the sight of The Beautiful World you envisioned
Every Child healed and cured of pain and aggression
Long live the King! In our hearts you’ll always be!!
Invincible you were Michael, Invincible you will always be!!
