Puppet Master

No one seems to get it

No one understands

They all just seem to hang

From old worn out strands

They look to me like puppets

Hanging from their strings

Always obeying orders

Afraid to use their wings

Scars are in their pasts

Afraid to look back

Following the rules

Away from attack

They try and look up

To see the one in control

So scared of the face

That could take away their soul

So they do as they're told

Never complaining at all

Their head never straying

For fear that they may fall

Then one brave soul

Says I can't take it anymore

You can't have me

I want to choose the other door

So she breaks off the chains

And prepares to look around

Ready to face the fear

And hoping that she'll be found

Her heart begins to race

As she looks at the sky

Seeing her reflection

She lays down to die

*Authors note*

Just in case the last line didn't make since I thought I would explain it. When she sees her reflection as she looks up she realizes she can never escape the pain and fear because she's inflicting it on herself. So she decides it would just be better to die.
