Puppet to love
Do people only love you because
      you tend to their needs.
Love is love--
       only when you agree?
Would you love me if I stood in my power?
Do I have to play puppet, you-- puppet master?
If I told love No, will it leave?
Love isn't supposed to be control
It's suppose to free --
         a heart from aches
Love is meant to mend
      Not a secret weapon
I need a bandage from
  Love's damage
Desired by many
--Of
   Whom
don't know how to love
Love isn't confusion
      Illusions
Nor deceptive
   Love is sure
Pure
Innocent
    I only question love
Cause I often get confused
  As I said--
love is sure
    Some use to control
             And abuse.

"..and if I could make you understand one truth, it would be this. Someone who manipulates your feelings through guilt, isn't loving you. That's an attempt to control you and that has nothing to do with love" - JmStorm
