Clear Ivory skin
Radiates light and beauty
Gives off the illusion of perfection
But that's all she is
An illusion.
She looks innocent and pure as a china doll
Flawless like a statue; always frozen.
But as you come a little closer, if you look a little harder
You might see her flinch when you get too close
You might notice something in her eyes and behind her smile
And suddenly, you're frozen too.
Eyes locked in hers; something about her is captivating.
Somehow connects you to someone so detached
A girl so isolated and alone
But in a fraction of a second, time catches up to you
A blank expression washes over her so fast, you don't even have time to blink
So fast, you're convinced that you imagined it.
