SaFe- iN a LiTTLe BoX

Contributed by strange_lindsey on Wednesday, 23rd June 2004 @ 05:08:07 AM in AEST
Topic: psychoticpoems



She kept the sound, sound of his voice
Safe- in a little box-
And took it out; once a day-
Just to hear him say her name.

She kept the pound, pounding of his heart
Safe- in a little box-
And took it out; once a day-
Just to feel him live on through her.

She kept his strong, handsome hands
Safe- in a little box-
And took them out; once a day-
Just to help them learn her face.

She kept his brown, brownish-green eyes
Safe- in a little box-
And took them out; once a day-
Just to stare right through them.

I kept his broken, breaking body
Safe- in a box-
And kept it six feet underground
I took it out; all the time
Just the show the world he's mine.

I've kept the haunting, crazy secret
Safe- in a box-
And it stayed with him in the ground
I took it out; not even once
Just to lay forever next to him.

I put him there
Safe- in a box-
Six feet underground
I layed there breathing in his air
Forever together; soil surrounds.

I put my comment to Lindsey
Safe in a box
And I sent it to her
And this is what it said:

Lindsey, you did a wonderful job and I enjoyed this, although the ending gave me the chills....maybe I should put those in a box too? I'm just kidding. Hehe. Very nice write!

Blessings
Love, Jenna

i loved it. i was thinking, "i like it. the idea is great." and then...

"I kept his broken, breaking body
Safe- in a box-
And kept it six feet underground
I took it out; all the time
Just the show the world he's mine."

and of course, that hooked me. f*cking beautiful. this would make a hell of a song.

guess i'm done. skittletacular scrawl.
