Wandering by the Shelf on a Random Tuesday

Wandering by the Shelf on a Random Tuesday

I see the doll on the shelf.
She longs to be taken down and played with;
this is the nature of dolls.
But is there more in her eyes than that?

Is she content in the role of a plaything,
or is that all she feels she is?
Do dolls all want to be little girls,
or are they happy to just be toys?

On the outside, the doll is not broken.
No chips in the porcelin, not a hair out of place.
But is the inside more complex than the outside shows?
Is she fractured in her core from years of rough play?

And if, from the joy of being played with,
a doll is lovingly broken, is there not still joy in that?
Are those not the scars, earned in battle,
that a toy will wear with pride?

Or are they the marks that show a little girl,
wanting to appear less than she is, to hide her<b> scars.
</font></b>Has she taken on a visage of porcelin,
to cover the hurt inside.

I don't have any answers,
I myself am full of questions.
But I see the doll on the shelf,
and I wonder...

 Yes this doll is covered in pocelin to protect the soft insides , that have been broken more in loving play . Those are the deep cracks because when the love is gone the hurt is more than occasional play .
A play thing is what I choose to be as I am in controll of when I allow some one to take me off the shelf . For that should be viewed as a honnor for I am choosing them worthy .
The one I choose to love brok all the inside pieces . Uppon putting the pieces back together I found the heart no longer fit . It had grown and then shrank was far to delicate to be left insidewith so many loose pieces . I wraped it for storage and placed it on display in a case . A sign reads for display only to fragile to play .
