Porcelain


Her skin

is of porcelain--

smooth and matte

and cold

like winter snow

 

Her eyes

are lifeless--

dead and empty

and gray

like a thick, foggy day

 

Her lips

are crimson--

blood like and thin

and refined

like velvety, red wine

 

Her voice

is delicate--

soothing and gentle

and faint

like the mizzle of spring rain
