A porcelain doll
with a pretty painted face
used as a smiling mask
sitting on the top shelf

She's crying inside
but won't let anyone see
It will only be a matter of time before
she falls off and breaks into a million pieces
showing her true self,
whats really inside

They only see what they want to see,
a porcelain doll
with a pretty painted face.

I can really relate to this. It's very true, people only see what they wanty to see in another person.

A very sad poem, if that doll is you, please talk to someone who can help. Surely there is someone who cares. If not you can email me because I do.

This has been the same way with me most of my life, and I already have fallen off that shelf. Putting your life back together can be a hard thing, and if you want to talk, feel free to email me anytime you need to talk to someone.
