Life lessons

Just Because I cut, doesn't mean I'm emo.
Just Because I laugh, doesn't mean I'm happy.
Just Because I wear pink, doesn't mean I'm preppy.
Just because you can't see it, doesn't mean I don't still hurt.
Just because I'm not a virgin, doesn't mean I'm a $lut.
Just because the bruises are gone, doesn't mean I don't still feel it.

Life Lesson PoemA poem about breaking free from the people that control you and that you're never a puppet until death overcomes you.

I am a puppet, held up by your strings.
I am a puppet trapped in your ring.

I am a puppet for you to enjoy,
I am a puppet I am your toy.

I am a puppet for you to use
like hollow wood for you to use

I am attached I'm only yours
a puppets act to earn your applause

I am the peasant and you are the king
and my only escape is to cut the strings

There is only one way for a puppet to die...
You must cut the strings and commit suicide.
