Trapped

 don't undress my love
you might find a mannequin:
don't undress the mannequin 
you might find
my love.
she's long ago forgotten me.
she's trying on a new hat and looks more the coquette than ever.
she is a child and a mannequin and death.
I can't hate that.
she didn't do anything unusual.
I only wanted her to.
