Chasing Paper Dolls

Paper dolls dazzling as the sun Walking down the aisle one by one The span of 3 lifetimes a kiss and a song Quick and swift as the day is long Youth did shadow the mind and the heart One foot out the door right from the start Never really there just a shadow in the mist A silent movie a snare and a fist She needed a hero and a moment and someone to love Sadly there was not one -not one to speak of So in the end it's all he knows it's all he tries As she quietly watches  his wandering eyes Years of denial and a life built on lies The heart hardens as she cries and cries A paper doll who crumbled shriveled and fell The hands that held her the oceans did swell Moving to yet another doll - as if he could Love this one better - love this one good {Valentina Silver©️}
