small children
make me sad
with their full cheeks
glowing skin
sincere smiles

all will fall
and fail
at some point in life
mine did

i could cry
at what im missing these days
oh
the beauty i had
when i was a child
people would say
shes a doll
now
they wouldnt dare
now
im such a bulky heavy
piece of flesh
who wears too much makeup
void long ago
of my genuinity
