    Hey, I have an idea for your ending

    Now looking up at the figure
    Hanging alone in the dark
    Looking… watching… waiting…
    For her soul to disembark

    Now it sits in a cardboard box
    Waiting for someone to pick it
    A little girl comes over and picks it up
    It gives a smile to its next victim

    That's a nice poem. The ending is punchy! I will speak about the ending in a couple of minutes. The title is good and relative especially to the last line.

    There are somesuggestions,

    The second stanza is quite vague and general, it does not refer to the doll or to the girl directly whereas all your other stanzas do.

    In the third stanza "It's witness to her dreams and wishes" sounds odd; may be because of grammer.Perhaps it should be "It's a witness to her dreams and wishes".

    You must use punctuations thorugh out your poems, they could have put a lot more meaning into your lines.

    The last line gives a puchy ending and a nice concept to the poem but it could have been phrased better to match the flow and pronounciation of the poem."It smiles at it's next victim" would sound better.

    Love the Title... I don't think you need to change it o.0 but if you really don't like it.. i'd go for Porcelain Doll .. my favorite stanza is:
    One minute she's laughing
    The next she's in tears
    It's a witness to her dreams and wishes
    Also to her regrets and fears
    Great Job!
    5/5

    I really liked this poem, the imagery was excellent, and the poem itself sad.. I think the title was perfect.. If I was to change anything though [hope you don't mind me saying] but the middle 2 lines of the last stanza kinds of sounds a little off to me because of the 'pick it' [2nd]and 'pick it up'[3rd]..
    My suggestion...
    Now it sits in a cardboard box
    waiting for someone to pick it up

    Now it sits in a cardboard box,

    3rd time lucky.. bet ya wish I hadn't added you to my faves now pmsl.. blame Billie for messaging me and lack of sleep lol

    Now it sits in a cardboard box,
    waiting for someone to pick it up.
    A little girl reaches out,
    it smiles at it's next victim.

    I know it doesn't rhyme as well.. and it took all that effort to put my suggestion across, but at the worst I must have made ya smile with my stoopidness lol xx

    That was a very emotional poem! Believe me when I say I have tears in my eyes, and it's quite nearly impossible for that to happen to me! You see me writing the saddest poems, and the most depressing, but I'm such a happy person, I rarely cry! Actually, I didn't even cry at a funeral I recently attended... Basically, it takes real talent for anyone to touch me like that.

    The porcelain doll
    Knew she would break
    Watching and waiting
    For the toll to take

    That's my favourite part of this poem. I loved it. It makes me think of so many situations I have had to face.... When I was 9 my friend commited suicide. Anyhow, I don't think you should change the title. It was that, after all, that drew me to read this work of magic!

    Congrats! 5/5!
