~ Ritual Misery ~

she is a broken doll
who craves her master's puppet strings
guiding her limbs
and binding her to him

she seeks to fill
the void within her heart
(an ancient, festering wound)
with the will and desires of others

believing (hoping) that 'being useful'
is the key to making herself whole
and that her master's strings
will one day stitch together
the scattered fragments of her soul
