Music Box
remember when you
used to open your hand
and i would dance
in your palm
a human music box
always spinning
to your favorite song
then you would
grow tired and
close me up
only letting me dance
when you wanted
to be amused
you were always
the music in my heart
even in the darkness
of your control
i would pray to
see the light
the lid open so
i could ballet
a smile across
your world
