A puppets' tale

I dance to the daily chores, life is my string
I am a puppet with a mock face, mockingly I sing

Strings pulled by the crowds, I owe nomore what is mine
I dance to the tunes which others play for me, 
somewhere something reminds, puppets don't whine

Silent and still I wait when there is nomore, for then I 
realise I miss it, maybe I am like a whore
You take me and play as you wish for I am not even paid,
You can thorw me when you get tired I am not the one whose 
voice can be raised. 

As days pass I am turning into a ragged doll, 
Even kids don't wanna see the puppet, away they stroll

When would I be released from this web of strings
May be I am real, I may know what life brings

But none would pay heed for all of us are puppets, 
some by choice, some are gods muppets.
