There are so many strings attached.
One is controlling my mind,
  One on my left arm and another on the right.
There is one on each of my legs,
and the last one is on my mouth.

I was subject to humiliation,
unsecure in an unperfect world.
Controlled by the fear of man,
left to shiver and shake in my tennis shoes.
But I'm not game today,
I wasn't destined to be a media marionette.
I won't be sacrificed for any other cause.
In the past I'd look to the heavens,
and didn't really know,
that God had given me,
everything I could ever imagine.
No Strings attached

Cool, I like it. I like the progression of thought and the outcome even better. Nice.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Larry- Thank You.

by the way.. I LOVE the smell of your black leather jacket. I walked by leather jackets today and one reminded me of you. I just thought I would let you know.

Had to read this one.  Another great write - I loved the visuals.  God Bless You Kellie - Tim

He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered. Proverbs 28:26
