Broken Dreams' Strings

Every dream shattered as he said

"No, you can't, you can't"

But I heard different perhaps

"Stop dreaming, do nothing

But entirely what I say"

perchance felt like a marionette.

Strings pulled and limbs moved

"I danced to his tune"

But my heart still longed

For the dreams that he doomed

"Every day felt like a cage

Trapped in his puppetry"

But I held on to hope

For a chance to break free
