A Home Where Nobody Knows

ForeverJesus7

What happens the people,

after their fifteen minutes of fame?

They made the world stop,

for a real short while,

Now nobody remembers their name.

Like the woman who cried wolf,

she took everyone's attention.

They all believed her story,

until the part she forgot to mention.

Then everyone second guessed her.

Why'd she do it?

One knows why.

Now she will always be known,

as the woman who likes to lie.

Then there was the young lawyer,

who was big in the court.

He based his life on his money,

and things of that sort.

He was a rock in the courtroom.

In his arguments, he did budge.

He was the only one who could get away,

with telling off the judge,

but he wasted all his money,

and now he is old and frail,

and the only time,

you see him outside,

is when he goes to get his mail.

To the man who traveled the world,

who thought that life would be forever,

he found out sooner than he thought,

that his traveling days would be over.

He tried the unthinkable,

that everybody else thought was scary.

He saw everything in the world.

Now for the rest of his life at age thirty,

he is working in the library.

The moral behind this writing,

is to be careful not to burn bridges,

or you'll wind up in a home where nobody knows.
