Im a porcelain girl
painted pretty
dressed in lace
created to please
to be forever thankful
to my benefactors
and when I stray
and fall
and break
they will gather up my pieces
and put me back together
with extensive care
I am constantly beaten
with the invisible, invincible
leather belt of conscience
my own guilt
into submission
into conformance
into perfection
Im painted pretty
and I smile
under the burden
of my guilts bruises
hidden under all the lace
I was created to please
and that I do
thankfully
I seldom stray
and then the heavy strap of my own conscience
reprimands me.
treatening to shatter all I am.

| I liked it very much. We were all created to please and we all want to please..even at 55 years old I want to please. But that concience of mine...anyway, I loved it. I wonder sometimes why we were made in such a way to attract men..and to love doing it....then give us a concience! Not fair LOL |
