~Toy Box~

Wind-up soldier
A cast-off boy
My new muse
Another's broken toy

Little porcelain girl
My favourite doll
China heart shattered
It couldn't take the fall

Broken Jack-In-The-Box
Surprise is almost never there
She had always loved so freely
Her heart was prone to tear

Colourful spinning top
Silently goes round and round
Inside she's pleadingly screaming
But you'll never hear a sound

Little tiny yellow cat
Buttons for blue eyes
Can't see his own beauty
His hindered sight lies

Though they are all broken
My favourite girls and boys
I love them all dearly, because
They're my misfit toys
