Dear Mr Jackson
You lived a life of a star, now you died as one too. The whole world - those in your support and those who aren't - is equally taken aback by the stunning news of your shocking death. You have now, by your death, healed the world which was formerly cracked and divided by your very own controversial life, and brought all of us together as one to pay our very last respects to you.
I was not very fond of the numerous surgeries your underwent to make yourself a complete opposite to whom you were originally born. Nor was I very fond of your scandals and court trials that made their way to the front pages. I used to scoff at your every name that appeared in the news, because they never end up there with the right reasons in your later life. From the surgeries, to your nose, to your divorce, and even your Neverland - the pictures of you often made me indignant.
Then again, I remember cheering at all who imitated your MoonWalk, but deep inside I reckoned nobody can ever beat you in your own game. I remember nodding to the rhythms of your songs, acknowledging wholeheartedly the makings and the influences of the King of Pop - a title so rightfully given. The crowd always goes crazy in your presence, and it's not difficult to see why.
You have always loved attention, am I not right to say. From the days of Jackson Five, you've made yourself known to the world as the kid with fantastic voice. Your stage performances never fail to tell us, you are but one who takes pride in everything you do. Even your nose brought you to the world's attention, as the black guy who did a little too many plastic surgeries. But even as negative reports flooded your every presence, you never fail to be the crowd magnet and drew all attention towards yourself. And now you've departed, and became the talk of the world.
You lived a life of a legend, and now the world mourns your death. As much as I criticized your previous life, I have got to say, your unexpected departure would signify the fall of a giant star, and a great loss in the music arena. You have left us your legacy, and I honestly doubt anyone will ever have the capacity to fill your shoes. I feel sorry for your unfulfilled world tour ambition in july. I guess God has might-ier plans for you somewhere else.
May you find peace and continue your legacy in another dimension.
