My Little Box

I am in a box,
No one can see me,
I am alone,
No one can hear me,
I am afraid,
No one knows who I am,
In my little box,
Thats where I hide,
In my own little world,
My lonley little box,

Someone is outside my box,
They are trying to get in,
They are knocking,
I am scared,
Should I let them in,
Should I let them see me,
Who I really am,
I open my box,
They don't understand,
Im hiding for a reason,

I let them in my box,
Finally im not alone,
I have somebody to love,
We are happy together,
But we are in a box,
Not much to look at,
Not much to see,
We break down our box,
And discover,
What the world is,
The world that I have never seen,

Its a wonderfull world that we live in,
I just wish I had known,
Instead of living in that silly box,
I could have been alive and free,
Im glad I decided to let them In.

Tree....

You started out as a tiny seed,
In mother Earth's womb,
You became a part of the world in that moment,
Once you poked your little head out of the ground,
You hoped and prayed they'de let you grow,
Into a big strong tree,
And not yank you out like a weed,
As you kept growing you began to realize,
That life isn't full of bugs and butterflies,
There is love,
And there is hate,
There are times of peace,
And times of war,
As each ring of your life grew,
You got bigger and bigger,
Eventually you got so large,
That you thought you were untouchable,
But you wern't,
They scratched and carved you,
They choped off your branches,
They tried to restrict you,
But you kept growing,
They couldn't stop you,
Eventually they gave up,
And just let you be you,
Those were happy times,
Eventually you became old,
Your leaves started to fall for the last time,
Now you are an empty reminder of what you once were,
Life.

The Place Inside of Me

The lonliest place in the world,
The only place where I can be alone,
The only place where I can be me,
A place where I can scream,
A place where I can cry,
It is a place deep down inside,

Sometimes I dream of leaving this place,
Just to see what it is like,
Are other places as lonely as mine?
What would it be like,
To see things through their eyes,
But it would be impossible,

Sometimes my place seems so small,
But then I discover something new,
There is something every day,
The more I discover,
The lonlier I feel,
I wish I wasn't so alone,

I am traped in my place,
There is no way out,
I want to get away,
From the things that haunt me,
All that has past,
All that will be,

As I sit alone in my place,
I am safe,
From those who hurt,
They can't get into my sanctuary,
They can't get into my prison,
They can't be inside of me.
