"The Box"


Restrained
Held close
shut inside
gave most

She never said
She stopped right
She always left
She gave insight

he smiled forever
he left her there
he never stayed by her, but
he never cared

They dreamed up a perfect world
They kissed by a marvelous power
They cried till the last day
They thought they could overpower

Once he was restrained.
Once she was held close.
Once they were shut inside.
Once, only one gave most. 

-Isabel Aanya Leigh
