Porcelain Doll Poem by Silentpoet Grl

Porcelain Doll

Rating: 5.0


broken, the porcelain doll is laying
tossed aside, used and shattered.
her once fair perfect porcelain skin
now cracked and crimson stained
her sparkling glass eyes reflecting
a pool of past memories escaped
falling crystal tears painfully carving,
all innocence was long ago stolen,
as they dry upon this broken face.
painted smile fading, closed red lips
tightly sealing in many dark secrets
forever etched upon her fragile heart.
ghostly whispers quietly echoing,
as a haunting lullaby is faintly heard
inside this damaged porcelain doll
as a beautiful ghost crying, rises
taking the hand of the silenced doll,
mourning a lost life too early ended
standing by her grave, heart breaking,
the ghost sadly lets wilted flowers fall.

Dont worry Silentpoet Girl, the porcelain doll just like you maybe but you not made from porcelain, you made from cells, so even you broken, you can get healed even it bruised but soon it will be okay...if you think you are porcelain doll maybe you must know, you are special edition because u can move freely...so it hard to break easily...so if you feel afraid to be broken wear a mascot of Teddy bear, it safe and not broken even fall 100000km from highest mountain :) _Unwritten Soul

when I was reading this, images kept invading my mind, flashing images of what you described... almost as if i were there, or like a movie scene from Paranormal Activity or something. It had an uncanny, haunting effect on me. Powerful! Great Ink here! ! ! -Kelly.
