China Doll
Brutal hands enclose my once fragile body
A monstorous grin explodes on a dark demonic face
His eyes are the color of a foggy day
A memory ingrained
Sedentary in my brain
Dragging me by my hair
Screaming and clawing
I screech and I writhe
A delicate little china doll
Fighting for my life
He strips me of my hope
Tearing me down to my last seam
But it's too little
There's no way
He's stuffing pink poignant pills in my face
I struggle and refuse
He looks at me all amused
He pins me down and forces the deed
Sliding down my throat and in my system
An unbalance of equilibrium
Dizziness and decay of the mind
Leaving his mark
Rushed for time
Nebulous vision clouds my mind
I'm a torn up China doll
No longer cherished and protected like an ignorant little child
I feel robbed and abused
No picture of fairyland remains
Turned into the toy of the night
Thrown in a chest and tied up tight
Littered on the streets like a tattered piece of trash
Reality struck a pose
And the nightmares took flight
Abandoned and alone
Left to crawl capriciously in the darkness
Just a toy
Nothing more
Just a broken little china doll
With a broken little heart.
