Porcelain

Pretty and cool,
Expensive but cheap,
I’m a Porcelain doll, 
I stand out from the heap!


Somebody bought me! 
Oh what a joy! 
I have finally been chosen!
No longer seen as a toy!

They aren’t very nice.
But that's fine! 
I’ll hear them out,
And it’ll pass the time!

They are angry at me, 
They saw the cracks,
This wasn’t meant to happen! 
This was meant to last!

Damaged and a fool,
Smiling but weak, 
I'm a Porcelain doll,
And I cannot speak.
