Glass Box

110 9 2
                                    

I wait for the day your glass box breaks
And everything inside finally escapes
I watch from afar, the glass case shade and glow
With chaotic lines and depressive shadows

Each day the glass starts to crack
From being shaken, thrown and tapped
So now I wait for the contents to be freed
As you try to hide the inside in your great need

I wish you'd let it open, I wish you'd free yourself
For that shut glass box is anything but help
