Dear Puppeteer

Dear puppeteer,

I need you to let me go.

Dear puppeteer,

I have a life of my own.

Dear puppeteer,

What if I want to drink and smoke.

Dear puppeteer,

What if I don't want to grow.

Dear puppeteer,

You give me lessons about freedom,

But you hold me by your strings,

Washing my brain with your deadly serum.

Dear puppeteer,

You should let me go,

Maybe when you do ,

You would free yourself too.
