Pulling Me Into Misery

puppet on a string
heart on a sleeve
song to say goodbye
as you prepare to leave

withholding the truth
in those unintended lies
cursed by a spell
as I drown in your eyes

stupid rhymes
emotions fade
muscles tighten
when you twist the blade

puppet on a string
heart on a platter
I was the one
that did not matter
