I want you to know: You don't matter. I just loved you. But like a little girl Loves her rag doll Foolishly dragging it Everywhere Thinking it loves her back. You comforted me Played your role in my life. But only when I held you there Like my rag doll Squeezing too tight Never wanting to grow up Or let go. You became a crutch Dragged along Becoming worn. Holes from misplaced love And dependency. I've out grown you. Put you away in a box. But that doesn't mean I didn't love you. You were my world, My everything. But that love Was the love of a little girl. Innocent and naive Nothing special or real. Just enough for a useless rag doll. To outgrow And forget.

Rag Doll
I want you to know: You don't matter. I just loved you. But like a little girl Loves her rag doll Foolishly dragging it Everywhere Thinking it loves her back. You comforted me Played your role in my life. But only when I held you there Like my rag doll Squeezing too tight Never wanting to grow up Or let go. You became a crutch Dragged along Becoming worn. Holes from misplaced love And dependency. I've out grown you. Put you away in a box. But that doesn't mean I didn't love you. You were my world, My everything. But that love Was the love of a little girl. Innocent and naive Nothing special or real. Just enough for a useless rag doll. To outgrow And forget.
