Tall dark and handsome
Kind brown eyes that held mine
Eyes that shined with false promises
A smile laced with uncertainty
Kisses filled with venom that fogged my mind
I was your muse
My laughter a song that warmed your heart.
My endless well of comfort was your sweet escape
My aura a confusing craving you couldn’t understand
You kept me tethered to you
To lose me meant losing your smile
Keeping me would not leave you satisfied
A charming prince turned into a Puppeteer
A princess turned puppet
Strings laced in confusion and uncertainty
Replaced the warm caresses and sweet kisses
Refusing to be tethered by fickle charm
She pulled back despite the hurt
She’s a princess after all
You were never a prince -
Just a puppeteer looking for a puppet
