A face
Painted to amuse
To emit a desire
To the eye,
A body, tall
Meant to bend in the contorted direction
Small, in all the right places of course
A home
With unforgiving walls
Remind me of where I can’t be
People passing through
Approval, or rejection
Smeared across their faces,
No one asked for it
A thought
Not meant to be mine,
We can’t think where I come from
Batted eyes
Even less mine
A mouth, slightly pouted
was no accident
A girl
ready to cry,
Unable to tear?
Tears can’t fall if painted eyes won’t close,
Besides,
Dolls can’t cry.
