After Midnight
Porcelain girls awaken as soon as
 the last light turns off. They ready
 themselves for evening events.
 Make up. Curls. Glitter.
 
 Tiptoeing through the mansion’s
 maze, they make sure no adult 
 is in sight. The girls grab their
 parents keys to take off on 
 
 a midnight ride. Arriving to the 
 strobe light house, the dolls smooth 
 complexion glistens in the moonlight.
 
 Large glossy blue eyes peak through 
 their long curly blonde hair as they
 dance their lies away. 
 
 Bells chime as the clock strikes 3 AM. 
 The girls are running quickly trying 
 Not to break their fragile legs. Driving
 
 recklessly they slam on the brakes and
 run up the mountain of stairs, quietly. 
 Porcelain skin cannot leave without 
 parent’s permission.
 
 Wiping off the glitter from the night,
 The girls crawl their way back into their
 beds; whispering midnight secrets.
 Glossy blue eyes close and their blonde 
 
 Locks fall softly on the sunlight pillows.
 Their painted lips hide secrets of the 
 night as their parents come in, to say hi.
