Chapter 5: Doll House

To My DaughterWords: 453

With good confidence,

how can I navigate myself

out of the lost abyss filled with

a movie scene in every room and

a mother posed as a figurine doll?

Searching through my memory,

I remember her holding me once.

A motherly display

filled with the cold of a stranger.

While being held I could tell her soul cried

For a better life where I didn't exist

For a life without me was a life of abundance

and so, I packed my stuff and left at the end of the week.
