OUT
OF MY BOX
In former times a love was had
For years I didn't think it bad
Then bit by bit my love was lost
Replaced by something quiet like frost
Was it me that ruined love?
Had I lost the knack
To open freely up my heart
To one who had been there so long
With help from friends I began to see
The problem wasn't really me
Ide been trodden on for far to long
And treated like a piece of cloth
But with their help I fought right back
The box I'm in had formed a crack
And as I opened it to let
The light from outside on my back
The crack did grow more every day
Until I saw that lovely world
I squeezed until I found my self
Out of the box and free
The question was what next to do
To stay around and watch
My darling girls grow and mature
Or leave and let them go.
I couldn't leave and not return
Our bond is much to strong
I think I will stay around
To hold them In my arms.
But out the box I intend to stay
The air is clean, the ties are broke
I love the feeling now im free
And always ever more will be.
