Gothic Doll
Lost child, I see those eyes of deepest
blue,
You are no more to those who once you
loved,
So lost without a hand to guide you
through.
Your clothes tattered, your face
encased in mud,
You were found (drunk) too young; you
danced tip-toed
With friends, all dressed in black,
looking for some escape.
You shift, so softly, from shade to
shadow.
Believe not in karma, and not in fate.
Your own innocence you’ve come to
despise.
In that hard luckless woman
you’ve become,
Passion sings sweet, but in you
it’s undone.
The walls behind those eyes are growing
tall,
Deep-blue pleading for a soul to share
all.
