Oh My Love ➳ Roger Taylor

"If he succeeds who bids the magpie crowd,
Tossing his name upon its chattering tongues,
Talk, write, and dream of him, and they obey,While he they praise, alive on lips of men,
Has breathed his soul into the bubble, fame,
And lives an empty life,-if he succeeds,
Be mine a life of failure to the end!"

-Amos Russel Wells

Everyone has their own issues, whether they like sharing them or keeping them private, they still have issues. But when a person is born already in the spotlight their whole lives are permanently inked on the front cover of magazines. They cannot stop it, their lives are owned by the media.

Amy was in that situation even before she was conscious, and by the time she wanted privacy it was all too late. She did not chose the paparazzi in her doorstep, but she did pick to follow the path of music that her family was famous for. She could have become an accountant or maybe a primary teacher, just like she could have stayed away from a blonde drummer who kept making jokes about their age gap in a party.

This story is prove of what happens when you decide to listen to that little voice on your head that tells you to do whatever you want, not what is easier.
