Let's Play

You'd see beauty if you cut into me,
so grab a knife and let's play.
Slice me open, baby.
Take a look at what's inside.

Visual aspect brings on a new meaning,
When you see it from within.
Slide your hand in to feel the life,
Touch me like never before.

Find the source of my beating pain,
It lies beneath my sternum.
I love the sting of your discontent,
Of what you see before your eyes.

No palpitation of a nervous heart,
Just a hollow, aphotic cage.
Stuff me with your good intentions,
Mummify your precious snow queen.
Keep me on your mantle,
As a reminder of what you've lost.

Skin as pale as a winter wind.
Lips as red as a blood soaked rose.
Hair as black as the darkest night.
Eyes as fierce as a dagger through the throat.

I will be your porcelain doll,
My beauty will never be sufficed.
Forget me not as I lie in stitches,
Watching you from my tomb.
