Porcelain

It was a day like this, 

You remember giving me 

That bubble-wrapped gift?

One of those showpieces, 

A dancing girl, free-spirited and dreamy.

You said she reminded you of me. 

Strange, how you hate me now 

For those exact same reasons. 

Stranger, how a showpiece remained 

In the most careless edge of my shelf 

While you became a memory. 

Perhaps because, 

Emotions are more fragile 

Than porcelain.
