Soft neon light's color the city vividly. The tall buildings were like something out of a painting, the whole scene was like a painting to put it fair. All of the signs glowing a soft neon color, blending in with the night so smoothly.
I sat there on my porch, observing it all from my 3 story penthouse. Sipping on some cherry cola mixed with rum. A interesting taste as it both burns and gives off a sweet aftertaste. Nonetheless, it was a classic drink i could fall back on.
The air was humid, and i was in nothing but a pair of booty shorts and a spaghetti strap. No care in the world, but that would be a lie if i said it aloud.
I have so much going on in my life that there was no time to do what i wanted. I wake up, went to work, get bossed around, have fans pester me for pictures and then get upset when i say no.
I may be a semi famous singer and all but i still want my boundaries. Im not a good role model, i make mistakes. I get exhausted after shows but still wait another 4 hours for autographs and pictures.
Yeah it's flattering to have so many young people look up to me, but it kinda blows when they think im this perfect untouched human.
Im just like anyone in this god forsaken world, if i where to cut myself i would bleed red like every person would.
I take a sip of my drink. A hot feeling warms my chest.
Purple and pink glows off the big signs pour over into the puddles left by the rain, i can't help but stare at it.
I grip my cup a bit tighter, my eye's burn with tears.
Someday, i want everyone to forget me. Erase the memory that i was ever a semi famous singer, asking me in interviews stupid and sometimes personal questions.
Go on with their life never knowing where i live or what i do for a daily morning routine.
To let me live normal.
Someday, i want to have a small house for my own family. Far away from here, with a lover and possibly a kid or two.
Someday, but not today.
