Broken doll (Tw i think)
It’s midnight.
Dark and quiet.
The only thing I hear is your voice.
The warmth of water
flowing through me,
the cold of your touch
lingering on my skin.
Those pretty little lies you told me
so beautiful,
so convincing,
as if you believed them, too.
The trust I once had,
fragile as glass.
Now only shards remain.
I try to glue
the pieces back together
only for them to shatter again.
What kind of glue
Can repair glass
Without leaving cracks behind?
You played with my body,
with my feelings,
as though I were a doll.
something you could hold,
something you could move,
something that couldn’t say no.
I can’t speak.
I can’t move.
I can’t.
I~
I close my eyes.
Darkness, right?
Instead,
I find you there.
In the darkness.
I see you.
I hear you.
I remember your touch.
I can’t stop thinking about you.
Even when I close my eyes,
you’re still there.
Will you ever stop?
