This little box,
Where everything is kept.

This little box,
Light blue with a shallow depth.

Why is it now,
I notice,
This little box,
Forever stuffed with my worry,
And regrets,
Is starting to show wear.

Small bits and pieces,
Of it, all stuck in the corners.
A distant memory of what it used to be.

This little box,
Has had it all,
Everything I ever knew.

And now I wait for the moment,
It works no more because,

This little box,
Is showing wear and tear.
