Fortress Of Solitude; LIFE


Life.

In a big box
empty, dark and locked

In this box where I was born

Bright and filled it was

but that was long ago.

The bigger I grew the smaller it grew.

Now…

tight and crushing is this box upon me

I’m in it, and it in me

Pushing me from the inside to

grow more and do more

against the box so I’m crushed

If I outgrow the one I’m in,

the one in me will grow to take its place.

Life is in me and I am alive

There’s nowhere to go and no escaping it.

POEM BY Tinu H.K
