Puppet Strings

A poison dart

Slick and smooth

Reminder of my love for you

Aching pain

Cruel and quiet

The essence of my bane

Crystal drop

Tears me

Bears me

Makes me

Breaks me

Too old to remember

Too young to forget

How it all started

How it will end

Going out with a bang

Not my way but yours

I want to preserve

This beauty forever

This sapphire and gold

The ivory's turned cold

Liquid like ruby

Forever shall flow

Scorn me but stay

Hate me, I pray

Don't ever leave

Don't go away

And though I know you may

Loathe us together

You'll eternally be

My puppet forever
