Michael Jackson

Forever young

A generic square placeholder image with rounded corners in a figure. — Michael Jackson, here about 11 years old. We have already the deep sadness which already reveals the tortured man he will become. He does not know, yet, that his destiny will be tragic!

I wrote a song, which is the most honest song I've ever written. It's the most autobiographical song I've ever written. It's called, "Childhood."
