Your Doll
You don't love me No, no, please stop pretending. You say you love me, but you only love what you idealized about me Would you love me if you knew me? The real me?! Would you even accept me?! We both know you won't. You love me when I'm quiet, obedient, like your doll When I try to speak, you shout When I try to go, you pull me back You locked me in this bird cage And I forgot how to fly away
