The Puppeteer

You are very clever,
You know how to manipulate those around you,
You know what buttons to push,
You know what strings to pull,
Just like a puppeteer.
You think you can intimidate those close to you,
So they will bow to your wishes,
Yet as soon as someone attempts to bully you,
You back down,
Like a coward,
Unlike a puppeteer,
Who's always in control.
Perfectly good people,
Have been turned into complete tools,
By your manipulative abilities,
You're arrogance is unbelievable,
But once someone stands up to you,
You crumble,
Like a wet sand castle.
There is only one thing,
That could possibly put you in your place,
But I hope it doesn't happen,
As, it could break your heart,
And make you do something stupid...
It could make you kill yourself.
I wouldn't wish that on anyone,
Let alone you,
As, despite your puppeteer-like traits,
I actually like you.
