Up in the sky, all I see is darkness.
With the clouds gone, the cosmos is clear and endless.
Though the constellations say otherwise,
Is it worthwhile that it cost myself as a price?

One by one, the strings tugged on my fingers,
Leading my hands on choices it lingers.
Each step I make is a casualty on its own,
Leaving my body back in the closet of the unknown.

This particular closet led me to an auditorium;
One full of people scrutinizing my every move as a form of entertainment.
With one pull of a thread from that room,
Its wants resonated with my body, all with its sentiment.

The people clapped as they watched with joy,
Uncaring about what it would have felt like in my shoes.
Being controlled against your ploy,
Is it really a mere show for themselves to be on lose?

Through the sick brain of theirs and in their computer screens,
It must have been fun to witness one of such tragedies.
As my fingers finally typed on my accord,
I sensed my pinky being dragged in a chokehold.
