Broken Smile

May 29th, 2005

I see the girl
With the broken smile
She’s in the mirror
And has been lost for a while
She’s disappeared
Into an empty dark place
And the only thing left of her
Is her picture
No smile on her face
No evidence to trace
I’m the only one who sees her
Nobody even wants to be her
Her broken smile is on her face
Her shattered heart beats one last time
And that broken smile on her face
That broken smile’s mine

Toys

August 23rd, 2017

I don’t know what to say
Have I written it all
Everyone has that phase
Where they’re done playing with Dolls
I don’t know where I’m going
I took a wrong turn
I played with the directions
And wound up getting burned
This was only a game
Why does it feel so real
I’ve looked everywhere
And there’s no potion to be healed

Those Dang Dolls

August 16th, 2017

Don’t play with me
I’m not a toy
I am fragile
And you’re a boy
Porcelain skinned
Cursed to live
Half hearted smile
But so much to give
What do I do
I’m only a Doll
Pushed to my limits
I still put in my all
I’m lost in this world
I just need my space
I’m just that dang Doll
That can’t find her place
