Patreon Request 14: Broken Doll

 It's the 3rd Saturday once more, and it's time for a new blog post. If you would like to vote on the upcoming blog posts, consider joining my Patreon. There are patron-only posts and polls. If you're unable to become a patron, you can also support me by buying my poetry book, "Living Day by Day: A Collection of Poems" and leave a review.

    Perched in a corner, a forgotten Black porcelain doll watches me with lovely brown glass eyes. The bust of her plaid dress is torn open revealing her busted open chest. Smudges of fingerprints litter the doll's Black body. Her ruptured breast exposes that her heart is broken as well. An agonizing pain consumes my breast the longer I stare into weeping brown eyes. The mirroring hollow chests epitomize the violence that has been done to the doll and me. A voiceless scream bounces off the walls of the crime scene. In my agony, I realize that broken body was me. END.
