Broken toys

We lack expression - pure substance-
Grow up before you have a stroke
For hearts die young - forever younger,
Than toys we tortured, toys we broke..

They lie in pieces, under blankets;
Time's building safe, forgotten space,
One day you find them and discover-
They have your own scared face.

When it's too quiet in the bedrooms-
You hear your heart beating in peace,
But it's wrong and dying reflex-
For it's something that must cease..

Toy's Mistress comes to kiss you goodnight-
Her lips taste of some ancient wine;
You smile at her in plush amazement,
And leave for world that is divine..
