RAG DOLL’S EYES
written by: Chris Howard

Distant, knowing, baby-blue eyes
Have seen too much
Rag doll lies for hours
Frozen by it’s loving touch
Limp-arm, restrained and twisted
Smothered beneath her weight
Constant opened eyes
But she’s still half alive

I don’t want her to come back
And feel the hungry emptiness inside
Four feet tall, paralyzed
I’m huddled against the wall
Too many times I’ve come back to life
To relive my death again
Reborn to find red roses
Splattered across the floor

Ruby ribbons in golden hair
Are pouring down her little face
Eyes stained with fear, forever haunting me
With her hollow stare

Twitching, breathing
Home-sweet-home sign gracing the wall
Calm and alone, far from here
Feels nothing at all
Power-trip, insane
Piercing eyes of it won’t see
His empty chest, can’t eat
But he’s still half alive

If I could feel my legs again
I’d try to take him down with me
Looking in her eyes
I know the place she’s laid to rest
Seems like you’re done, think it’s all over
‘Till you awake in pain
You’re reborn to find red roses
Splattered across the floor

Ruby ribbons in golden hair
Are pouring down her little face
Eyes stained with fear, forever haunting me
With her hollow stare
