You're mine

your golden locks of hair tickling my nostrils
just imagine how hysterical that feels
your perfectly carved deep-set green eyes
glisten while staring at me at nights
that alluring frozen grin on your lips
my boost to heaven as I watch you strip

I know you crave to break free
feel the thrill of a killing spree
leave your wooden box behind
a dumb dream that makes you blind

but let me tell you something
you're nothing
strings hold your hands,
marionette

pull yourself together, the show begins in three
act, everything's perfect, you see,
the public loves your fabulous fake life
no one knows about that hidden knife
under the pillow that holds your synthetic tears
and the puzzlement of a world full of foolish fears

I know you wish to have a purpose
different from making others envy us

be engulfed by the searing pain

of the putrefied air you breathe in

come, let me show you something
you're nothing
but an empty silhouette,
marionette

your golden locks of hair ruffled by the ocean breeze
held spellbound, so tranquil, yet you're ill at ease
let me fix that for you, please
I will make you wheeze
till you cease
to believe you can get up off your knees

I know you're bleeding out
labeled, too weak to shout
with every second that goes by
you become less like you, my butterfly

let me remind you something
you're nothing
so fasten your tourniquet
you're mine
marionette
