My Box
Someone told me you have to write what you
know. To open your heart and go for it. I know
I am a women who is so very lost inside the
world I made for myself. There are days I feel
I am In a box with no air. And other day's
I am screaming and no one hears. There is
no one to blame for this life but myself. I
choose to stay a step behind.For I feel safe in my
little box that has no air. The next step has to come
from me, my heart. As most, I wonder if my
heart is what keeps putting up these walls.
But how to breck them down? See out there
scares me, not knowing scares me, being alone
scares me. Not knowing terrifies me. At least here
in my little world once you get past the yelling,
screaming, being alone, it is what I know, it is
where I feel the safest. So be careful as you go forth
in this life because there is a chance you
may just build a room like mine. Live life to the fullest
and take the chances given do not end up in a box like mine.
