Within this Life of mine I could not be a puppet on String, And within this body of mine I could not have a make believe heart, that only would say I love you only now and then, and my every move would be made by someone else and I could not make choices for my Self, I would be without life and I would not know right from wrong, For I Could Not Be a Puppet on a String. � Copyright �2009� Richard J.
