heartrending hollywood

November 5, 2021
By Anonymous

Blinded by the cameras flash

Deaf to the paparazzi’s yelling questions

Numb to the 1,000s of DMs of strangers a day

Exhaustion weighed out glamour

Confusion weighed out money

Depression weighed out fame

Wake up, get pretty, eating nothing and get harassed in public while babysitting my neice

Wake up, get pretty, eating a little something and get questioned while writing in my journal at my favorite restaurant

Wake up, get pretty, feel shame about my food consumptions from yesterday and get a camera shoved in my face in a hospital waiting room

Panic attacks on the runway and fake smile for the industry

Hollywood, a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.
