Take a breath slow and steady

Give it all despite being ready

This porcelain doll whose hands are crooked

Whose heaven she claimed, is now but tooketh 

My precious moth now mangled above

I caress her face within my gloved

Hand as i am dashingly posed

Tilting my head to mimic hers i suppose

This fragile creature is all that i own

As i mourn what is scorned as our fates are now lorn
