Girl with the
porcelain skin
Girl who's striving
to win
Constantly holding
her head in shame
Snapping her
supposedly petite

If only I had a piano 
would I eclipse 
the porcelain in my life
I do not think so
as I do not use ivory and ebony
I just play the keys

An already fragile porcelain doll; twist a heart..
While one turns their heads towards, another day ?

Among the Leaves

From the forest floor,
Her loving eyes look up at me
Out of pale, freckled porcelain,
Blue-green, bright, and piercing,
Begging to be wanted.

Fragile

Built of fine glass and porcelain 
Could anything keep them apart?
Detained by every single notion
Except for her broken heart

How could you hurt her so?

Exotic beauty behind a veil.

Premium Member A Little Girl Cries

A little girl cries
Porcelain doll lies broken
No solace for tears

A young woman cries
Heart, soul, and dreams lie broken
Oh, to be a child

Premium Member Tea Time

Look, London ladies, buff your speech
Mind your soiled plantation fingers
Nary a trace of our old worlds
Occupy their halls royally
Porcelain cups poised on pinkies

Little Doll

Curly brown hair,
rosy cheeks,
soft blue eyes,
a pretty smile,
a velvet dress flowing,
lace socks,
shiny shoes.

This is a little porcelain doll and she is mine.
