Shyann-In-The-Box
Trapped in this box waiting for someone
To crank the handle on the side
so i can pop up only for a while
Just to see a small child scream in fear
At this hiddious face smiling at them
If they only knew how happy it makes me
to see another face
To hear another voice
To know I'm not alone...
Yet they never take me out
They never consider how lonely I am in here
They always shove me back in and close the lid.
So I am forced to wait
For the next child
The next scream of terror
The next pair of hands shoving me back in this forsaken box....
Just so this cycle may continue for
The Shyann-In-The-Box
