The Box INN
See me
Take me in
Not all of me
Only what the eyes can see
What the ears could hear
How i make you feel
Ask me things
Piece them together
Then find that box
Where I FIT in
Not all of me
Only what the eyes can see
Then ask some more
Seems like i would need a bigger box
A nice looking box
Maybe even a box within a box
Then ask yourself
Why won’t these boxes apt together?
Each unlike it’s fellow
There ... there
Look some more
Maybe You’ll find something to link them all
To sew them a line
Wondering what lays beneath?
Well wonder no more
Because Just like you
I make no sense
And There’s always more
