Once a child
Naïve and cheery
Now a hole
Deep and weary
Liquid acid pours down the porcelain face
To grow the white crystalline trace
Elongated roots of peachy pearl
Now adorned with aligned crimson columns that swirl
The same crimson gashes decorate the skull
From sequenced rhythm's feeling null
What was once a child
Bright with trust
Now an empty
Lifeless husk
Ego

This is clever. I like how it almost feels like it winds down, spirals down into its ending.
