The Container

January 17, 2022


the container that holds me,

oh, I so want to escape it,

I ask you to open it,

open the container,

I want to be free,

it has been a long time,

somebody caged me in,

now I see the outer world,

full of everything I want,

the darkness and emptiness,

oh, please free me,

I don't want to be inside,

open the container.
