Meat Puppet

Trying to recall the lines of this poem I wrote to my ex.. Damn it, I really liked that poem and I may never see that piece of paper again. Well, here's the sequel:

Pulling on my heart strings
You are the puppet master
And I'm your puppet
I'm lifeless
Without your love
Place my heart on the shelf
When you don't need it
Take me out to play
For pure entertainment
Your love
It brings me to life
I gaze at you lovingly
You look at me
Expectantly
Is my sacrifice
Not enough
My jaw is cold
And empty now
No words left to say
Since you tucked me away
I sit there in the dusty closet
My last hope
Is that I haven't been forgotten
But I've surely been
Abandoned
And now I await the day
When someone can make me
Feel again
