Glue and Porcelain
It shouldn't be here
 not today not this week not this year
 never
 the moth landed on my pinky and i felt like iwouldshatter
 i am was will be a porcelain doll
 you can see the spidery cracks in my frozen exterior
 i told it to go away
 don't touch me don't love me i need to stay high above on my shelf made of silly dreams
 i’m sorry 
 i’m sorry
 if you bend my limbs if you try to make my painted mouth smile
 i will shatter into a billion hundred little pieces 
 i know
 i have shattered before
 you can see you can see the pieces missing in me the pieces where him and her and them tried to fit me back together and glue me back together
 you can see cant you
 you can see where they lost the shards where they stepped on them where they fell down the air vent got eaten by the dog
 where they went missing
 maybe if you had some porcelain maybe if you had some glue
 you could fill in the pieces that have been missing from me for so long
 i want you to(o)
 please
