The Doll~Beautiful by 10 Years

This poem was inspired by an old friend, one always unlucky in love. After going through woman after woman, I asked one day what he was searching for. His response..."A doll, a Barbie, one who looks the part without making it obvious that I am being shallow." I can't forget the sadness in his eyes as he realized he rarely considered what is at heart.
The song is Beautiful, acoustic version by 10 Years.
The Doll
Today he treasures the doll
Elusive beauty filled with grace.
Yet tomorrow shall her beauty falter?
Will she show a different face?
Today he yearns to talk with her
To learn the secrets of her past.
Yet tomorrow will it seem the same?
Will the mystery last?
Today he longs to share with her
The desire within his soul...
Yet tomorrow will she listen?
Will her heart turn cold?
Today she is the center of every thought
Endlessly enchanting him...
Yet tomorrow will he remember her?
Will he follow another whim?
Today the doll is his treasure
For infinite hours of joy...
Yet tomorrow will she play along?
Or will she find another toy?
Today his eyes appreciate the doll
For delicate features, flawless skin...
Yet tomorrow will he be blinded?
Understanding truest beauty beats within.
"Beautiful" lyrics:
Beauty over wisdom to fit in with their styles
Your Cinderella story's for a price
Vanity's a business built to please the unique
Silicone and stars collide; the rest will fall in line.
Just as beautiful as you are
It's so pitiful what you are
You should have seen this coming all along
Visually you're stimulating to my eyes
Your Cinderella syndrome's full of lies
Your insecurities are concealed by your pride
Pretty soon your ego will kill what's left inside
Just as beautiful as you are
It's so pitiful what you are
You should have seen this coming all along
It's so pitiful what you are
As beautiful as you are
You should have seen this coming all along
You're everything that's so typical
Maybe you're alone for a reason
You're the reason
It's so pitiful what you are
Should have seen this coming all along
Just as beautiful as you are
It's so pitiful what you are
Should have seen this coming all along
It's so pitiful what you are
As beautiful as you are
You should have seen this coming all along.
