Little Girls- Laughing.

I could see her stiff blonde head poking out
from underneath the covers.
That plastic smile,
Mocking me from whatever distance.
I convinced him, more easily than I had expected.
"Let me tear your doll apart for you."
And I did.
Piece
By
piece
Her laugh turned my veins to ice,
But no one heard?
And I continued, believing
This would end her taunting blue eyes from
following me.
Until the alarm clock shook me to--
"WAKE UP."
