Standing

In a box,
  Four square walls,
  A lid to hold me in.

  Bursting the seams,
  Spilling out,
  Wandering all about!
 
  Finding my way,
  Only I can say,
  What powerful things come to stay.

  Sending out streams,
  Of music, thoughts,
  And dreams.

  No more box in my ocean,
  Outside the box I'll always be,
  Only way I can stay free!
