Marionette
(poems go here) Why is it that you
So beautiful my love
Have chosen my heart to
Hold your cold hands above
You dangle my two feet
Above a pit of beasts
And now I cannot sleep
While you enjoy your feast
Of my tears
My heart
My breath
And even all the rest
Of my life
My soul
My love
And you think you know best
And somehow I believe
While in the stormy seas
That we were meant to be
But I'm the only one who sees
You lifted me so high
Suspended by your strings
Made of ice, salt and lies
You watched me sit and sing
You play it cool, so innocent
But I know what you really meant
You never wanted me for more than my
Tears
My heart
My breath
And even all the rest
My life
My soul
My love
And you think you know best
I'm not
Your marionette
