You created me
painted me in porcelain
and dressed me up so nice
with frills and bows and lace
You made me
and my smile was only for you
I was bought by you
with sugary words and affection
as sweet as the candy you fed me

A china doll
sitting on your shelf and
waiting to be played with
I waited
and even collecting dust
I still smiled
only for you
Even when you painted my cheeks
with black and blue
and let me crack
you didn't care
to fix me
Taping loosely over the wounds
until I broke again

My frills flattened and bows wrinkled
and lace dirty with grime
shoved away to a back corner
of your closet
until you finally get bored again
Ihmettelen jos ihmiset ymmärtävät, että tämä runo ei ole "kirjaimellisesti", mutta nukke on metafora...mutta voivat tulkita sitä kuten haluavat. Kuitenkin, se on runo.
