Just A Puppet
all this time I tried to be what I could not be
because you wanted him not me
and after all this time I see
I am what he’ll never be
can’t you see?
i’m on my knees
I feel so stupid here on your strings
for years I tried, for years I failed
oh my god I get sick of this hell
telling me how bad he treated you
now I just don’t know what to do
because all of a sudden he misses you
while he was fucking someone else too
so am I the jerk for telling you the truth?
for being helpful while he hurt you?
but all in all I guess I was wrong
for letting myself be your puppet
maybe all this time I was meant to be this foolish
I want to be more, but now I know
I was meant to be just a puppet
on your strings forever be a puppet
I never wanted to hurt you
just wanted to help from all who wronged you
was I wrong this time?
was I not allowed to be in your mind?
I hate this shit, it happens all the time
I trust in someone and they end up just lying
so I try to move on, just leave and go
but I still look at your letters, wonder if you know
after all this time…
i’ll never let it go!
(never ever)
i’ll never let it go!
(never ever)
i’ll never let it go!
(never ever let it go!)

Author's Note
This is one of the first poems I ever wrote. I always wanted to post it on here but never got around to it. Mostly because this conflict was years ago. Though I hope everyone enjoys.

I'm very happy to hear this is an old poem. I do so enjoy your love poems for your lady. It would have brought me deep sadness to hear this was current. Emotions run deep enough to be felt clearly years later, that much is certain. And nobody deserves to be a puppet.

Lol. No, just younger teenage me. Though I did meet my wife shortly around this time. A lot of ups and downs, but now it just feels like a smooth ride. No problems just loven.
Thanks for reading, friend.
