How can I convey Or put into words This duplicity The way that it feels It burns my soul And leaves me charred I can't seem to let go Of what was never there The first time we met It was something of fate My heart gave in I was taken away I find it so ridiculous That I was so Naive You were so guileful So quick to decive All the times I kissed you And all the times we shared You could have fooled me That you never really cared I just dont understand Or how you could even go through When it comes to making me unhappy I leave that up to you Critized what I was wearing Told me what to do Just the right amount of make-up And just the right shade of blue Just the perfect barbie doll For the not so perfect ken Your living in a dream world Of plastic and pretend You wanted nothing but perfection Flaws were too much to handle So you plotted by yourself And drug me through this scandal So you were with her But weren't you engaged to me? It was me and you Not us three You left me faded And you'll continue doing it again But it wont be to me Beacause I've put us to an end I'm not yours to destroy To mold like clay I'm done being that art work I'm done being on display |

Yes - agree with Kacy - one needs love that builds one up, for the tear one down, that is not love. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

Love this...of course any mention to the Barbie and Ken excistence just makes me smile. That is one of my favorite things to tear apart through writing. Let them play at being grown up...eventually we all put away the dolls. It is just some of us get there a little faster then others. I love this poem lilibeelee. Sorry for the heartache...but it made for a really great verse. Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history! |
