Porcelain Dolls

We wanted you to be our friend Demanding favors, wanted you to Join us We try so hard to make you dead Don't worry- pain is kind of pleasure Child We're here That's all we really are We're broken You're broken too Memories They're all in your head The past is here to take you back! Warming memories you lack Memory has just been rotten Sweet old times all now forgotten Mindless scream misunderstanding Porcelain dolls are still demanding Can't believe that you're still standing Cat, dear child please come closer Our soulless eyes are glossing over Porcelain skin, cracking quickly Your tiny frame, trembling meekly How now, you're looking sickly Happiness will last forever We will always be together Oh dear Cat there is no fear now You have seen us somewhere, somehow Guess you broke your final vow Finally your small mind recalls Us two red suited porcelain dolls. Hey Cat, do you remember us yet? Last lines of each stanza: Join us. Child. You're broken too. Warming memories you lack. Can't believe that you're still standing. How now, you're looking sickly. Guess you broke your final vow.
