Porcelain

 

Consumed once again,

The memory hurts more than the pain

So caught in all you've lost.

Remembering for everything there is a cost.

Too lost to be found.

Too hurt to heal.

Only now you see yourself bound,

To all you never wanted to feel.

Pretty Porcelain...

 

Pretty porcelain your decorative purpose.

Fragile girl this is your curse.

Momentary perfection,

Inside lies defection.

Pretty porcelain is all that matters,

But then again porcelain shatters

 

A million little fragments of your soul

Each bruised broken and no longer whole.

You're so torn, stretched beyond the limit.

Isolated, cold, aloof, its all you've known isn't it?

Too dead to be reborn.

Too caged to be free.

You're so full of arrogant scorn.

Your armoured detachment this they don't see!

What they don't know, pretty porcelain shatters...

hahah pure insanity makes a point, and he seems ironically funny considering he says he is a bad speller hahahahahaha. Anyway, sorry i mean no offense to him, i find him funny.

Pretty porcelain; i liked the name, it fit so well! Good idea! Because they are hollow on the inside, sorry im rambling, i just loved the title. You seem like a pretty girl yourself (relax im not hitting on you, i am actually very subtle and staight to the point :P) I say that because i assumed your profile picture was taken for a purpose. It was interesting to me, and i really liked your uniqueness to the word. I haven't come across writing like yours before and i like it!

Thank you so much. Funny enough in my own ramblings i came across this idea of porcelain so pretty and perfect on the outside and linked with the idea that perfection is often a defection as it is unrealistic. Anyways now I'm babbling. Thanks again for a great comment
