I’m a china doll… With rounded hips, And fluorescent lips, I am still never “good enough” . . . But it's okay! I won’t grow today! I’ll lose another layer . . . People start to see, What’s not enough to set me free But, to only me, I have to be, What I saw years ago… . . . But I’m okay, Cause that’s what I say I’ll just lose another layer… . . . All I own Are baggy clothes, From all those Who still can get “too big” . . . Thinning layers, I’m running out I’ve reached my final road. Cause tags and walls Can say so much, But numbers say it all…

China Doll
I cannot recall the last time I sat alone to think enjoyed a full meal or felt the warmth of love weaken my knees and that is enough to spark worry in my soul In my world I am never lonely I do not lack in possessions or the adoration of a stranger from time to time Perhaps what I long for rests in a world beyond the city and far away from all I have worked to achieve

Recall
hunger is a blade that carves me i open my arms and pull the air in -big hug!- then **** right through me, nobody there. it's only me holding myself. my arms wrap two times around my ribs, meet behind my back for a secret handshake. i am not what was expected. i'm so sharp- it's cut me now i'll cut you. come closer closer no, come closer i'm gonna make you see what i see
