• Dolls (4-10-2010)


    Flesh of porcelain
    And eyes of glass
    Made for you and me.
    Back before diamonds
    Were forever.
    Back before you
    Worried about politics.
    Back before you
    Worried about religion.
    Back before you
    Worried about money.
    Back before you
    Worried about death.

    Friends to the end,
    Good and true.
    Yes, to the end.
    They are there
    When you cry.
    They keep all
    Of your secrets.
    Best friends.
    And even when
    They are old and worn,
    They hold on.
    They hold on for you.
    Because they’re your friends.
