Puppet

You were such a beautiful puppet, nice and clean, a fan favorite, but that was the issue. Being favored is nice until everyone wants to use you. You can still remember this first person who had you. You felt so very special, didn't you? It's a great feeling to belong, to have a purpose, to be seen. Until you realize some people can't settle for that and must use you.So you were used. Once they use you, you no longer serve their purpose, and they toss you aside. You wait for someone else to come along, then you will be used countless times. Each time hurts a little more than the last. That's your own fault. You chose to let them hurt you, to let the hurt define you. You're just a puppet. Easy to manipulate, in no sense in control of your own being. Were you meant to be this way? Are you being punished? Surely not being punished, what have you done to be punished for? You can't cause harm, you're a puppet. Puppets can't hurt people. Although you have. Is it possible that you could have a chance at being more than a puppet? Maybe if you stop letting everyone control you, you can be someone. Does it even matter who you are as long as you are your own? You deserve more than this. You will be more than this. The next time you belong to someone they won't use you, because they can't use you if you don't let them. So go, anywhere and everywhere as long as you stay away from those who have used you and tossed you aside. Get that job, take that test, reach for that freedom you long for. Run to the woman you want to be with, arms open, not afraid that she might leave because that's out of your control. You are back in control. You are free, you are you.
