the curtains drawn to the floor,
everyone is cheering and shouting in joy for you

this was your life,
a hero you always wanted to be

but in some other stories,

you're the villan

you see,
what you post on social media isn't truly who you are,

the aftershow,
you go home,
and you rot in your bed

depression comes in waves,
it feels like the water has blown over you

i feel the same way,
all i ever wanted

was to have you back

here,
with me

never mind the fame,
live for you and yourself only
