Puppet

Puppet

My heart breaks through my chest

My mind spins into a dizzy blur

My breath jabs at my throat

Why can't I stop from shaking?

Why can't I control my own body?

Tripping over my own emotions

I stumble to my feet

My limbs don’t answer me anymore

I am a puppet strung from fear

Insanity fills my veins

Dancing maniacally through my bones

Assuming position and taking control
