HE IS A MASTERPIECE IN A MUSEUM OF PAIN.

Porcelain clay molded to perfection. Hollow bones wrapped tightly with skin. Ribs laced with ribbons and lungs with smoke. His baby breaks him down, so she can build him back up. She leaves kisses on his wrist when the razors are done, not to kiss away the pain but to tell him it's okay. He is adorned for his flaws, for it is his only beauty.
