Box

Four walls close you in Nothing goes out, nothing comes in Feeling content in your own little world Everything perfect in your never-get-hurt Little box Life goes past at the speed of light Your smile is glowing and your face is bright Feeling like your world is great Only happiness, never hate In your Little box Suddenly you realize You need to venture to the outside It is a scary feeling but you are willing to try Hoping you will never cry When you open your Little box One corner is slit And it is a perfect fit Everyone is nice No hatred is going to suffice In the little bubble outside your Little box Suddenly things start to change The air is filled with hate and names You start to feel so alone Wondering if you have a place to call home Want to go back inside your Little box Tears are streaming down your face Feeling so out of place You wipe the tears from your face and dry your eyes Take in some deep sighs And close the slit back to your sanctuary Where all the days are bright and merry Inside your Little box
