Unseen love.
Self centered but beautiful,
too beautiful for me.
He said his name was 'David'
I came in a GT, Ford.
I sat in Gucci, stolen from my friends wardrobe
and at the wheel
I tried to steal the last cigarillo from the open box.
It dropped to the floor as you approached.
Rented car.
Rented luxury.
Oh, how sad we fake ourselves
for what we want our lovers to see.
too beautiful for me.

- yes we ALL fail with our love for aesthetics.
There's more to life than symmetry, right?
Nice work.

For some I'm not so sure, Laugharne but we'd like to think so, it's hard to change back when you change some much for a partner.

Thank you, I tried to be very emotionless about it as it felt like a very emotionless topic.
so true, so true

Everyone IS fake, until they can fake it no longer, that's when it falls apart
