Gold teeth, Grey Goose, tripping in the bathroom, blood stains, ball gowns, trashing the hotel room, we don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams --Lorde

something past the wishes of hope
a black stone for every time i turned around
looking back, to catch your reflection
once or for always, either as brilliantly white
as fresh snow, eternally perfect and
untouched even after butterfly tears
dapple the clear blue starlight
