Puppet Master

by nitaann

I am his little puppet He calls, I run He hits, I break He touches, I cringe and endure He controls me He controls my spirit He controls my mind I try to untie the strings And be a real person But each time I slip one off He is right back to tie it on tighter. The puppet master He beckons for me He wants to see me dance I dance for him With silent tears rolling down my cheeks.
