That's what you see
when you look in my eyes.
Broken, recycling,
reusable, right?

I'm just the girl
that you all passed around.
Used and abused
'til the new toy was found.

It's not like you loved me;
I thought that you did.
I really don't know
who I'm trying to kid.

I'm just the pretty,
reusable toy,
the puppet, the prize
for the next charming boy.

The one that will hold me
and quiet my cries.
Sweet, whispered nothings
and cruel, tender lies.

They'll love and hug me
like the "pet" I've become,
then throw me away
when they're done with the fun.

The boys that suround me,
each one is the same;
they all want their "brag rights,"
they all want a claim.

Because of their "loving,"
because of their lies
I've learned not to trust them,
to not bat and eye.

I've been beaten and broken
by boy after boy,
I'm the reusable, thrown out,
recyclable toy.

Wish I could find love.. But all I find these days are superficial fish in shallow waters.

I liked this one. Strong emotions without being over the top to much. Nice writing.

I googled you, I looked you up, I created an account, All because I needed to read this poem again. I  had it stuck in my head, and it fits how I feel right now... You are such an amazing artist, and in so many ways. ~That other Gemini girl~ xD

This is total perfection.

Library for sure.

Once more you have not failed to delight, tantalize, provoke and entertain with the thoughts of your heart. Truly, UNTAMEDelegance.
