SQUIDIOLICIOUS

when i was young. very young.
i wondered how he made them cry out his name till they fall over unconscious.
he was no david copperfield. he wasn't magic. he was a miracle.
and i remembered how i liked to use his initials to sign off.
i never understood why then. i knew he was a nice guy.
and he moved me by showing me the less fortunate.
so very often in his music videos.

his beats. his voice. and his moves.
and the figure he stands to be.
he was too great to be shunned.
i never believed all the stories against him.

and what moved me the most during his memorial,
was when his brother said, "Maybe now they will leave you alone.."
And i cried.
the tears just came down.
I felt sorry for him for the past few years.
He died long before the heart attack in this world.
The media who worshiped him killed him.
And till now there live so many ignorant bastards.
To hell with all of you.

I won't say that i love him.
I won't say that he changed my life.
But I will say, he is part of me.
And with his passing, I feel sorrow.

Don't rest in peace. You deserve so much more than peace.
