Marionette
Upright.
Marionette smile plastered on a crumbling face
But
Still
Upright.
Brain full of tears
Dreams dashed to no more
Doll parts scattered
On
The
Dirty floor
Strings snipped
Giving hideous freedom
Amongst the carnage
Arms
Legs
Smiles
Eyes still watch the show
Seeing a beautiful doll
Bald but brave
None
See
The
Tears.
