It's a Box

It's a Box

It's a ruse.
It's a shame.
A little box
and all the blame.

It's commited.

It's formed.

Opening up

and your scorned.

It's a love

and it's wasted.

Painful mess-

romantics taste it.

It's a rage

and it's a truth,

and it builds

till there isn't any use.

It's a

conspiracy.

It's a

crime.

It's that dead ringer look

you got in your eye.

It's when you lost it

when you opened up

Pandora Box

unopened-

-reopened-

-ripped apart.

But it's opened

and it's used

torn to pieces

pulled, stretched, puzzled, pulled, held, caressed, told it's better, told they're worse, told of future, faced the past, blasted together, mashed away, and given sweet sleep.

And it's hopeful.

And it's last.

To come from a box:

broken-

recast.
