My Little Porcelain Doll

Picking you up

Tears fall down my face

As I look into your eyes

The ones I once loved

There is nothing.

 

Holding you in mid air

I ask, "WHY?"

Angry and hurt, I curse you

It was my heart, my heart

Not yours....never yours.

 

The beautiful smiles

The innocent heart

Dying just to be loved

Lips like that of rose petals

No other soul so complete.

 

As I hold you in my hands

The reflection I see, is not you

Lest mine eyes misjudge the reflection

It is evil that lurks about you

Slithering through your veins.

 

Afraid of my discovery

I fall to my knees

Asking God for the forgiveness

Of the crime I am about to commit

Killing the only one I ever truly loved.

 

Holding you higher, I glare into your eyes

Once what was beautiful, is now evil

I loved you, I needed you, you killed me

Now your death awaits you

Here in my own loving hands.

 

As I lower you into my arms

I look deep into your eyes

The Porcelain doll I once loved

Who's beauty captivated the world

Most of all, captured my heart.

 

Your head I bash onto the floor

Awaiting to hear you scream

Each time I bash, I yell every word

that reminds me of who you truly are

Deceitful, liar, dishonest, and fake.

 

To your death I take you

Leaving you no time to beg

As for me, I am once again complete

Knowing that you cannot hurt me anymore

I am strong, and I will survive.

 

As for you, my sweet, little porcelain doll

You shall forever be nothing more

Than pieces of my life that I ripped apart

thrown into a plastic bag

Buried in your favorite rose garden.

 

Everyday as I walk passed this garden

That we so lovingly planted together

I smile, not in remembrance of you

But in remembrance of the life

you gave to me, and the death I gave to you....

 

My little Porcelain Doll.
