Russian Doll Poem by Patrick Coates

All I ever wish is to have, to hold you
Don't think it's not true because I never told you
You still have my love for sure
Gave you my heart, I couldn't ask for more
But everytime I feel like I truly got to know
you
And after all the things we both had to go through
I find don't know you much at all
Though in the flesh, at best, it's like a Russian Doll

Your lipstick, blush, and blue eyeliner
Hides one pretty face inside the other
Girl you look sweeter than a candy store
But still I wonder what's behind closed doors
Cause everytime that I feel like I know you
After all the good times that I tried to show you
I still feel I like I don't know you at all
Get behind your walls to find another Russian Doll

There's much more of you for me to discover
When one mask drops away to reveal another
Like smoke-in-mirors and the deep blue sea
Layer upon layer of infinite mystery
Since everytime I feel I've gotten to know you
After all the hugs and the kisses, times I tried to hold you
Feel like I never knew you at all
Theres much more that meets the eye my love, my Russian Doll.
