PUPPET
i wake up
in a body
that is not mine
who tied these strings
to my bones
and made me dance
-–
there are eyes
i cannot see
but they see me
whispersofverses.com for more i guess
they weigh me down
with their silence
with their judgment
-–
the mirror whispers
you are not enough
not the face
not the heart
not the soul
it spits back
what i already know
-–
how do you live
when your shadow
feels like a stranger
when the voice in your head
is your worst enemy
-–
they tell me
to love myself
but how can i
when my reflection
is a war zone
when every piece of me
is a battle lost
-–
the walls are closing in
the masks are smiling
the strings are pulling
and i am breaking
-–
but no one notices
because my cracks
are silent
