✝ ———- is it all lies ? is it all pretense ? inside that mouth studded in red velvet , underneath words crafted with such mastery , behind that portrait of a monalisa ; is anything substancial behind that painted SMILE that never fades , never quite meets the eye , vibrant in contrast to the emptiness that wallows , the tangible void behind that pair of crystal blue eyes that stare quizzically down at her ; docile now , bite as often subdued . a palm ------ clad in latex , frames the torpid skin of her cheek , & gradually , its tall , lean silhouette bleeds into view , a pale mimicry of a familiar face .
❝ are you alright , barbie ? ❞ ----- but there’s no hint of egoticism , no condescending undertone to the pet name it coos casually with a tilt of his head . ❝ you don’t look so well ... ❞ @itbarbie
