Dear Girl, I once was beautiful With a dress of black lace And dark blue ribbons Tied in my hair Stored high on a store shelf I smiled all day As children passed wishing to play Once denied by their parents they'd sulk away This bothered me so Created to serve but one purpose To put a smile on the face of every child I began to loose hope As each day seemed to prove my failure Still with all my beauty The store keeper decided to move me I was now hidden From the eyes of each small child They'd have to search To find me a simple dolly Then one day you saw me And a gentle smile came across your face You pulled me into you arms Whispering "she's perfect" Holding me tight You ran for your mommy Begging her to buy me My smile had come back I felt no longer a failure Safely snugged in your arms My button eyes gleamed brighter I loved you that much I knew From the first time I saw you The drive to my new home Seemed to take forever Once we had gotten there You made me promises as you brushed my hair Even with my mouth stitched shut You said I said so much You whispered your secrets without a fright And you'd pull me close every night We'd hide under the blankets When the day turned to night But one day you went out I awoke on your shelf For the first time you left me... I waited all day for you to come home Then when I saw you walk I smiled and lifted my head I figured you run and grab me Then cry when you said how much you missed me Instead you grabbed my ripping arm And tossed me to the bed My arm hung by one thread You just smiled as I cried Then my tears you fed I knew then You'd never be the same girl again The one who pulled me from that self where I hid Who promised to protect me no matter your health That's when it started My beauty faded away As I became your Voodoo Doll And your heart wilted over One night you'd cuddle me And whisper how much you loved me You'd even clean my one eye (The other disappeared after your first trip) The next you rip out my seems And stab me with pens As the room filled with my muffled scream You smile so pleased Sure you'd stitch me back up But to what just take em out again? My visions became blurred As your unhappiness was taken out You used to treat me like a person Turns out it wrong I guess it will always be Me who is the toy... Sincerely, Your Voodoo Doll P. S. I still have but one more secret Even with all this pain I'll always love you Please don't go away...

Dear Girl,
Dear Girl, I once was beautiful With a dress of black lace And dark blue ribbons Tied in my hair Stored high on a store shelf I smiled all day As children passed wishing to play Once denied by their parents they'd sulk away This bothered me so Created to serve but one purpose To put a smile on the face of every child I began to loose hope As each day seemed to prove my failure Still with all my beauty The store keeper decided to move me I was now hidden From the eyes of each small child They'd have to search To find me a simple dolly Then one day you saw me And a gentle smile came across your face You pulled me into you arms Whispering "she's perfect" Holding me tight You ran for your mommy Begging her to buy me My smile had come back I felt no longer a failure Safely snugged in your arms My button eyes gleamed brighter I loved you that much I knew From the first time I saw you The drive to my new home Seemed to take forever Once we had gotten there You made me promises as you brushed my hair Even with my mouth stitched shut You said I said so much You whispered your secrets without a fright And you'd pull me close every night We'd hide under the blankets When the day turned to night But one day you went out I awoke on your shelf For the first time you left me... I waited all day for you to come home Then when I saw you walk I smiled and lifted my head I figured you run and grab me Then cry when you said how much you missed me Instead you grabbed my ripping arm And tossed me to the bed My arm hung by one thread You just smiled as I cried Then my tears you fed I knew then You'd never be the same girl again The one who pulled me from that self where I hid Who promised to protect me no matter your health That's when it started My beauty faded away As I became your Voodoo Doll And your heart wilted over One night you'd cuddle me And whisper how much you loved me You'd even clean my one eye (The other disappeared after your first trip) The next you rip out my seems And stab me with pens As the room filled with my muffled scream You smile so pleased Sure you'd stitch me back up But to what just take em out again?
