China Doll
0 ReviewsA china doll from a different point of view. Not a glass doll to enjoy, but a description of what it must be like to be that doll. Sometimes I feel like this...
China doll
China doll
On the shelf against the wall
Glassy eyes stare into space
If you break you'll be replaced
Disappoint and be defaced
Rosy cheeks
A perfect nose
Can't bow or curtsy
Yet still you pose
You cry your heart out
Though your tears never show
Your coral lips can only pout
Surrounded by only the finest teas and tarts
For you are the greatest of sculpted arts

Though your tears never show
Your coral lips can only pout
Surrounded by only the finest teas and tarts
