Plastic hearts recessed behind dull eyes,
Manufactured mannerisms masked by front page mannequins,
Minds, closed and empty like caverns.
Can you afford the price of perfection?
Passion - drained from humanities soul,
Life is a game for the rich of pocket,
Love, for the fools wrapped in starlight,
Dreams of faded mystique.
Mahogany curls, smouldering down her back,
Beautiful eyes, wide, tortured,
Applause and acclaim, secret terror.
Liberation; a forgotten dream.
White lies and apathy,
Beauty only runs skin deep,
Shallow, faded, superficial fatalities,
Hollow lies - endured for beauty.
Catch the plague.
