Love Puppeteer

Was it the way you said my name?
Or could it be the tender touch
Of strong, masculine hands
Gently caressing the dull locks
Of my hair?
Average feels like a death sentence
The puppet strings demand my fist
to beat the rain-filled ground and scream
at love, my puppeteer. His kiss;
a sneering jail that likes to free
the dead while letting others rot.
And I am rotting.
