Doll
Porcelain cream skin,
Honey blond hair,
The right kind of thin,
Taken down with great care.

Monday Musings: You won’t read it.
You won’t read it.
Feeling dead inside…
Maybe colder.
Maybe older.

Monday Musings: Inner Child
Inner Child
Inside me is still my younger self.
She’s alive and breathing.
And not very sure of herself.
Nor her small fragile feelings.

Pain
You think you know real pain:
the sting of a cut,
the crack of a bone.
Monday Musings: Tear My Castle Down
Tear My Castle Down
I’m standing on my castle which stands on the world.
So why does everyone think I’m standing on them?
I stand here alone; I don’t need a boy or girl.
I can do this without you, all by myself.
Monday Musings: Beautiful Nightmares
Beautiful Nightmares
I can’t get you off my mind;
Thoughts of you keep me awake at night.
I toss and turn; there is no relief,
Not until you are again laying next to me.
Monday Musings: Save Yourself
Save Yourself
There is no one who is going to save you here.
If you are broken, the pieces are yours to pick up.
If you are afraid, it is up to you to conquer your fear.
There is no knight in shining armor, and you do not have to wait to be saved.
Save yourself because no one else is going to do it.
