Scissors Please??

loving you against my will
I would lay down for you,
let you walk on me, be your
mat, if only you reciprocated-

my grit has been sucked
away - my weakness has
become your source of control-
you speak - I am your puppet

offering you wine,
your inhibitions free,
exposed intoxication -
would your love still be
feigned

 

marionette or not -
do I snip these strings  
get off the floor?

Author notes

This is for those of you that have professed love and it was never returned.

    Hmm

    You definitely could have drew that out a little more. It seemed to stop too soon. You do have the wisdom and words though. I really would like to see this completed. If you ever decide to continue it further, let me know!

    Interesting take on unrequited love, to be the doormat and never the person adored to be beside C
