The poignant lyrics provide insight into the tragic life of Michael Jackson. Several lines are particularly heartwrenching:
"People say I'm not okay, 'Cause I love such elementary things...It's been my fate to compensate, for childhood I've never known...Before you judge me, try hard to love me.."
In his pleas for understanding, he reveals self-awareness of how his life was peculiar and eccentric du to his attempts to regain his childhood. Thrust into performing and a public life practically since birth, his life really was devoid of a childhood. He was formed, admired, then ridiculed by the media and greater public. I find it hard to castigate an individual who lost so much innocence early on without anyone or anyplace in which to find shelter from the world.
His recent death has left me with such a lasting feeling of sadness. I hope in death he is somehow able to find the acceptance and love that eluded him in life. The profound sadness that surrounds his life should be a reminder that we should all be a little kinder and accepting of our fellow man despite how different they may be. We have no idea what burdens they bear or trauma they've suffered along the way resulting in who they are now.
