Outside The Box


“Words are my weapons
Words console, comfort and calm me when all else fails me

♥ Outside the box

"Break free of confinement"


I am told to think outside the box
But how does one really think outside the box?
When everything is in a box!
And really am I in a box?
YES it's true!
That I live in a house.
Therefore I dwell in a box.
Everyday I devote endless time to the television
Therefore I am consumed by the box.
I go to school
In a boxed building.
Carrying boxed textbooks.
And listen to professors with boxed notions
While driving my boxed car.
And having all my memories boxed up in albums
Am I really in a box?
And if I am...
What happened to my inner circle?
My essence,
My soul.
If my eyes
The window to my soul
Are circles.
And my grandmother gave birth to my mother
Who than in turn gave birth to me.
Am I not part of a continuous circle?
How about the ring on my finger?
That symbolizes ever lasting love.
Does it loose significance because it's not a box?
Not to mention time it self is a continuous circle.
So why is that amongst so many circles?
We still have difficulties thinking outside the box?
