Plastic dolls upon the wall
Pulling their strings to make them crawl
Dress them up like in our dreams
Making them not what they seem
And tomorrow they will dress again
Building themselves upon their trends
They only smile when I cry
They only smile and watch me die
Take away these plastic souls
They only want to be controlled
Staring with their glass eyes
I can fill their head full of lies
They will just smile and carry on
They only comfort for so long
I wish I could melt away their plastic skin
And see what really lurks within
Rest the gun against my brain
Pull the trigger and watch me drain
Full of plastic and silicone
At least I know I'm not alone
The plastic dolls upon the wall
All begin to tumble and fall
Into a world of silicone
And I can pretend like I'm not alone

Ok, That's actually amazing.
I hate porcelain dolls, puppets, things that move unnaturally, and so this resounds with me.
I like how you toy (see what I did there, geddit?> geddit??) yes, toy, with the idea that the dolls see everything, yet do nothing. They are unintentional witnesses, with maybe the power in their evil eye to do evil themselves.
Anyway...
Imaginative., clever write. I like it. -

I loved the fact that you compared the society to a world of sillicone and the people to dolls. This really showed me how mechanical we have become these days; almost without feelings, full of lies that we are told to and we tell the same lies back and forth, making ourselves believe that they are the truth. This piece was brutally true, with just a tad of reality, and in the same way, it was beautifully written with a wonderful takent! I loved reading this piece; it was a great write. Best wishes!
