I deeply regret the lost of Michael Jackson
Growing up when we had no food we had michael music, when there were no money we had his music, when we were told we did not measure up we had is music and when there was not many reason get out the house we got out because we had to go dance to micheals music My chilhood was especially happybecause of Michael's music.Today the only thing that ease the pain of Michael's death was once agin his music. I'm crying but I'm still dancing.

gave you my childhood
I gave you my music
I gave you my kindness which you took for weakness
I gave you food and help to feed the world's hungry
I gave you laughter
I gave you love
I gave you stature andI made you millions
yet you lied on me
You Mock me
and you, you doubt my sincerity
you falsely accused me,
I became hert confuse and dismay
I tried to hold on using all necessary means
you wanted more I thought I had more to give
lots more but God said No No No nomore, I need him Now right now
R. I. P. I would take more if I got more but franly you gave me a lot and you left me a lot.

But he wasn't God. God says in His word, there would be no other gods beside Him. Why not believe on Him and receive eternal life forever.
They that call on His name shall be saved.

The sad thing is that the people (white folks) Michael Jackson desperately wanted to look like, those are the people that sent him to an early grave. He depised the person he saw in the mirror and took deperate measures to change it. I know he regretted altering his skin color.

This is to Debra, you think I, being white killed Michael Jackson? I am 15, I didn't grow up with him, and besides white people loved him too, Celen Dian, Cher, Sheryl Crow and countless others. I recently began rediscvering him for myself. And soon I was in love, with his music, him. He was an inspiration to me, to any person no matter the race. Hispanic, White, and Black people all adored and love Michael, me including. So it really insults me when you say white people killed him. You want to know what killed him? The fame, the fortune, the media, that is who is to blame. I don't understand why he did all that he did to change his appearence, I don't understand, either. But what I have to say is, that he probably depressed, lonely, suicidal, and mentally ill, not insane, but like I think he just missed his childhood so much, that he opened Neverland to give all the kids the chance to have an amazing childhood he never had. He never sexually abused a child, he might have what some people think was an unhealthy relationship, for me I think that he related to kids very well and wanted to do whatever it took to give them love and so he let them sleep in his bed and such stuff. It is in my opinion that he never touched those children sexually and I strongly support that and believe in that. Why he didn't have any biological children? To that I couldn't answer, why he so desperatly never wanted to be black? I don't know. It is sad that he would want to denounce his race like that, but again I think he had very poor self-image and maybe if he thought he was white, that he would be good looking? I don't know, but what I do know is that he was a very sad lonely man-child. He never truly moved on from his childhood because he never really experienced it. My heart aches to know that he is gone, but I think I am also relieved that where ever he is, he is not suffering anymore and hopefully he his at peace. My heart goes out to all friends, family, his children and his fans. We all miss him so very dearly much. He was a talent that the world had never seen before and that the world will not see for a very long time. R.I.P. Michael Jackson, a dear, dear person, we all loved you very much, our hearts our bleeding.

I'm listening to Thiller! I remember sitting in front of the TV with all the kids in my hood waiting for MTV to show the video! It was the most wonderful thing we'd ever seen! My Dad kept yelling for us to sit down cause we were all up dancing and trying to do the steps! I can't stop crying! He was a year younger than me! Rest in peace my little Prince for we shall never see the likes of you again.
Peace-Out
