The King of Pop...Michael Jackson is gone


I am sitting her watching a VH1 special on Michael Jackson, and I still can’t believe that he is gone. Michael Jackson Music has been a part of my life since I was a young girl. I loved the song “Ben” and “Rocking Robin” I was so little when I first remember hearing these songs. Then when I Was in the fifth grade “Thriller” came out and I was lost in the world and music of Michael Jackson, he is amazing, he brought love and joy to the world of music, the world of pop will never be the same now that its king is gone.

There are questions about his death, The Los Angeles Coroners office is awaiting the Toxicology Report and that can take as long as four to six weeks. He left behind three children, and a world full of fans that will mourn his death for years to come. We all are waiting on tinder hooks to find out what took the life of one the worlds greatest singers and performers.

He had a lot of bad press and there are ugly Allegations about him that tarnished his reputation. I am saying Allegations because I was not there I didn’t see what happened and I didn’t know the man and it isn’t my place to judge him. I know that what he did in this world he has meant his maker and has paid for the things that he did.

I know that I still can’t believe that he is gone, it just doesn’t seem possible that at the age of fifty Michael Jackson was taken from us. The morning after he passed away I was laying on the bed watching the BBC news and I was over come with his death. I laid there and had a good cry for Michael Jackson and the impact he had on my life and the joy, laughter and smiles that he brought to my life to make it better. There will always be a hole in my heart that no other performer will be able to fill; not even Donnie Wahlberg and the New Kids on The Block doesn’t even feel it.

I know that I am sick to death of hearing people bad mouth and belittle him. I know that every one has the right to their opinions but I have the right not to listen to what they have to say. I want to remember the man and his music and nothing else, I want to remember the man and the music and the Legend that he left all of us.
