"China Doll"

A dark poem I came up with today... about how I'm feeling right now.

"China Doll"

Innocence was lost

Early and sudden

They broke the China Doll

Told her to toughen

Asked her whats wrong

He grows vexed

She doesnt respond

Looks at him, perplexed

Paint, paint, O China Doll

Make something great, O China Doll

Fill my demands

Ask for what need

But do understand

I shall not heed

Paint, paint, O China Doll

She toiled hard

She toiled wide

Obeying her master at every side

But every night

She still cried

There was no hope

Even when she tried

The Doll grows tired

The Doll is worn

Wishes to expire

From overwhelming scorn

You're body is aching

Bones are breaking

Veins are straining

Skin is fading

Mind for the taking

Is this art, you're making?

Paint, paint, O China Doll

Make something great, O China Doll

Fill my demands

Ask for what need

But do understand

I shall not heed

Paint, paint, O China Doll

I am never letting you leave

My China Doll
