My Porcelain Unicorn

Once new and Clean,shiney and white,
My Porcelain Unicorn kept my dreams safe at night,
Keeping me safe,keeping me warm,
Keeping all my dreams free from harm,
Even if the times were bad,
Even when sometimes were sad,
A gift from my Granny to her lonely lad,
It'll hold onto your dreams,said my ol' GrandDad,
Then the cracks began to form,
and began to age my unicorn,
Little chips,here and there,
Every time we moved somewhere,
Another crack in it's magic horn,
and no more dreams for this unicorn,
No longer new,shiney or white,
I no longer remember sweet dreams at night,
Another little chip,Another little crack,
Nightmares of the past kept coming back,
All my Hard Work,My Life gone in a blink,
What else could I have done,I just had to think,
I did all that I could,I'm now old and worn,
and all I've got left,is my Porcelain Unicorn...
