The Sealed Box
do you see this hermetically sealed box?
inside it I kept the greatest anguish
things that would hurt me too much
if they were out there
I already told you about the deposit
Where do I accumulate similar boxes?
I think so
It's a huge edifice and it threatens to collapse
I walk around the building
making the repairs I can
time passes and i'm becoming a watchman
protecting the content from theft
I'm afraid
because I've already taken so much from me
that I don't even know what's left...
