Death pt.2

Maybe I should give up,
Maybe I should not,
Maybe I should try,
Maybe I should not,
What's with all the shoulds & should nots?
I don't need anyone commanding my every move.
But I am a doll after all;
limbs useless without the strings,
controlled by the one above.
I want my own life;
can I just switch off, or switch on?
Can I decide for myself what is good,
what is not?
I want my own life;
I try to cut my strings,
but you sew them to your skin.

Wow. I like the last two lines - so reverberating.

Ever read Henrik Ibsen's A Doll House? You remind me of Nora.
