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
