Porcelain Doll

by watoot

Dragged in the corner of the room My porcelain face started to crack But I was made with eyes that cannot cry I was given to you as a present I was a sign of prestige for young girls But I was put behind the wardrobe I understand my looks gave you creeps But my smile was genuine Yet my stare was far off from this world I wasn't given a life, only pretty colors Etched on my skin were features of a human girl On porcelain skin, I cannot show emotions

I have a victorian porcelain doll hidden behind my closet.  It kinda creep me out so i placed it behind my wardrobe.  I wonder if this is her life.
