Famous

 If we were to be famous
Would we end up in music videos
Or be tormented by paparazzi
Like the infamous Lilo.

If we were to be famous
Would we party on the land we built on
Or would we end up in porn videos
Like the temptress paris hilton.

If we were to be famous
Would we get caught up in our tears
And forget about our sad kids
Like the obstinate Britney Spears.

If we were to be famous
Would we have anything left to dream of
Or would we secretly kill our husband
Like the murderous Courtney Love.

If we were to be famous
Would we impregnate before we marry
Like the woman we all know and love
Mrs. beautiful Halle Berry.

If I were to be famous
I would be none of the above
Because that can only drive you to madness
And leave your heart broken, and out of love.

well first let me say that i don't agree that Courtney Love killed Kurt Cobain...neither literally or metaphorically....

"I can't get over the frustrations, the guilt and empathy i have for others." Kurt Cobain

anyone who feels this way is, to me, is predisposed to self destruction....
they were both heroin addicts who should never have married, but thats another story...

I like what you say here, your rhyme, word choices, rhythm...it all flowed pretty well until the last 2 lines, which, while effective enough, didnt seem to be as smooth...

Thank you for your review of my poem...
