In tribute to all things petite Pretty and sweet, the lonely doll. This first i offer a greet And desire to repeat the lonely doll. A poetry painted from truth But imagine the suit the lonely doll. For beauty eternally in youth Those pity compassion and roots The lonely doll. I stumble out of the salute And evening last june, the lonely doll. And heard a distant mournful tune Under the dyad moon The lonely doll. My soul, though with wine i did douse The song did arouse, the lonely doll I followed, a drunken louse Unto a cardboard house,the lonely doll And through the window to see A doll before me, the lonely doll Singing to the mirror was she- Was it a plea? The lonely doll Her room was all dresses and bows For a doll neeeds her clothes, the lonely doll She leaned in to breathe from a rose And stood on her tippy-toes, the lonely doll With a brush made of jade and pearl She straightened her blonde curl, the lonely doll I saw the sad eyes of a girl Under teardrops, aswirl, the lonely doll She went to her canopied bed And laid down her head, the lonely doll She picked up her sheep-doll and said Something with dread, the lonely doll Though i was too drunk to make sense I felt her essence, the lonely doll And turned to leave this pretense For night, black and immense, the lonely doll I remember that singing doll And her grievous call, the lonely doll As a little reminder to us all Whose sadness wasn't so small, the lonely doll.
