The Box

By Allison Getz
Oxbow High School, Grade 10

The box is where I keep my heart
The box is where my heart must stay
The box is where no one will find it and throw it all away

The box is where I keep my secrets
The box is where I store my stuff
The box is where I dream so quietly when everything is rough

The box is where my thoughts are hiding
The box is where our memories lay
The box is where no one will find us, and that’s just okay
