Tabloid heartaches,
crumpled pages of
yesterdays fame.
Super model in spotlight,
left on dilapidated runway.
Wine bottle ego shattered,
spilling wealth onto floor.
Licking up last drop of
dignity, thirsting for life.
Dying for perfection,
medicine for sadness,
she falls into coma of reality.
Silk rose of beauty,
dried up.
