A “Great” Loss

It’s not like I saw Michael Jackson in the media doing great every day; or listened to his music every chance I got; or not even that I was anticipating his next album a great deal, but when he died it just made me realize that I’ll never see him again… No more albums, no more concerts, no more comebacks… It’s over.

And they say you don’t miss something until it’s gone…

Now when I listen to his songs it’s like listening with ears that will never hear again.

Now when I watch his videos it’ll be like watching with eyes that will never see again.

I wasn’t ready for that, but when would we ever be ready for death?

Death is so uncertain even for someone who is dying; you just don’t want it to happen, and especially not to our great ones.

Say what you will about MJ, but he was great. A humanitarian. A pop superstar. A trendsetting icon. A legend. An inspiration to many. The reason I wanted to be a dancer & performer one day.

What greatness do you plan to leave behind?

Rest In Peace King of Pop
