PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

you put me in this box,

so that's who i profess to be

and you understand my surfaces,

but my inside cannot see,

so you tell me who i am

that i'm uniquely me,

but you cannot understand

my desire to be free.



within this tiny box,

i've lived forever long

that all i desire now

is my life not to prolong.

i do not know what's right

or even know what's wrong.

i have no will to live.

i am no longer strong.



so open not my box,

but leave me where i be.

let stay the tiny lock

and throw away the key.

forget that i'm inside

and from this place do flee.

keep closed my little box

and heed this as my plea.
