Gone To Waste

drugs. nuff said.

The lights are dimmed.  

The air is thick.

The stands are filled.  

The lines are quick.

The crowd stands up.

The screaming starts.

The base is heard. 

The truth imparts.

The spotlight shines.

The time is yours.

The echo sings.

The rhythm soars.

The breath is gone

The hands are frail

The voice is still

The skin is pale

One voice not heard can cause a scene.

One simple plea can seem so mean.

An end to all with just one taste

A star no more, now gone to waste
