My Ode to my Former Barbie Dolls

Dear Barbie,


Hey Barbie, it's been a while since we've seen each others faces. How's life going for you? Busy living in Barbie world? How's Ken? Barbie, I know I never treated you nicely, but I never meant for you to break your neck. Honestly I swear to god, that was an accident.


I'm sorry I did all those horrible things to you, and I hope you only remember the good times we had. Like when I would dress you up and platy with your hair and all.


Because I feel so terrible for all the things I've done, here's my apology.


I'm sorry for all the times I yanked your hair this way and that way.
I'm sorry for blaming you when your clothes ripped because I put them on you inside out.
I'm sorry for throwing you across the room every time I got angry.


I'm sorry for turning you from thisto this


to this 


I'm sorry for calling you ugly, when actually I'm the one who made you ugly.
I'm sorry for coloring your hair with scented markers so that it's colorful and scented.
I'm sorry for always bending your leg and I'm sorry for the times I made you do splits and yoga.
I'm sorry for everything but mostly, I'm sorry for that day, That day when I broke your neck, and your head came off, and I threw you away. Your head got stuck in the toy bin, and I yanked your legs, but your head came off.


Technically speaking, It wasn't my fault. And you're the one who has a weak neck. But, I don't blame you. I'm sorry for what I did to you and please forget about the bad times we had, and remember all the good things about me.


We spent almost 2 years together, and that's a long period of time.


Remember when I'd take you to my friends house and we used to take baths together and dress up? We used to have a lot of fun and you were a very special friend for me.


Remember the time I took you to kindergarten? All of my friends were really jealous and thought that you were really pretty.


Although we didn't get along with each other all the time, we still made a lot of memories together. And I hope you remember all of the good ones. You were my second best friend,when I was in kindergarten and I still think of you as a special toy for me. I'll always remember you and you'll always be a memory for me.
