The wild, tousled hair.
The full lips, downturned at the corners.
The mumbling voice.
You, the boy with broken stars in his eyes.
So close yet so far,
So high yet so low,
So strong yet so weak.
Let the champagne drown you,
Let the starlight blind you,
Let the red carpet gag you.
It destroyed you,
It devoured you,
It deserted you.
Your face scarred by tearstains,
Your body bruised by kisses,
Your ribcage cracked by shame.
A bloody bandage where your eyes used to be.
Two burnt stumps where your hands used to be.
A gaping hole where your heart used to be.
Now, so damaged and hollow,
You’re nothing but a mannequin.
A sick memento of what you once were
And what you could have been.
