Dont be sad but you are not as beautiful as me
look at me:
my face is ostrich egg shell
my eyes are iranian turquoises
my lips are rubies and my teeth are pearls...
young craftsman that you love
is my god, a god who used to
worship his creature!
but after you entered this house
he asks me why my eyes are not brown
why dont i have scarf instead of this crown
hey persian girl, tell me why im not you
tell me why he does 'nt think a doll may have a heart too?
