Puppets

Puppets

A Poem by Annabelle N.

A puppeteer pulling invisible strings

for a shell perceived to be a girl.

Moving her body,

while her mind floats

in an endless abyss of nothingness.

Painting on smiles

and relaying recorded laughs.

He portrays her as normal.

When inside,

she is empty.
