Puppet Master

I am not in charge.

If I was then he would go…
Over there…
Somewhere
And she would go too
And you would probably be
Somewhere
By me.

I want to control the puppets
(They’re marionettes)
But I have no strings attached.
Realize that-
And follow the strings to
Somewhere
Closer.

A long time ago
Someone
Pulled me to you
And then dropped the strings,
Letting me fall,
Handing the reigns to someone else...
Did you cut them?

I am not in charge...
But if I were,
Would our strings become tangled?
There are none attached to me...
Except for those pulling me
To you.
