“THE BOX”

SHE HANDED ME ONE RAINY DAY A BOX,
AND ON HER KNEES SAID TO ME TODAY MY LOVE FOR YOU WILL STOP,

‘TIS THE LAST TIME YOUR SOUL I INHERIT,
NO LONGER WILL I HOLD ONTO THE THINGS FROM YOU I SO DEEPLY CHERISHED,

I WAS WITH YOU FOR MANY YEARS,
WE WENT THRU MANY THINGS AND I VALUED YOU STILL THROUGH ALL MY TEARS,

SOMETIMES I WONDERED WHEN THE ARGUMENTS WOULD STOP,
AS SHE CONTINUED WITH EVERY THOUGHT
– TEARS FROM HER BEAUTIFUL EYES CONTINUOUSLY DROPPED,

I CAN NO LONGER BARE THESE EMOTIONS OF PAIN,
YET I’M KNOWING THAT DAY AFTER DAY I’M FINDING MYSELF FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU ALL OVER AGAIN,

TRYING TO MEND, HEAL, RUN, OR STAY,
QUESTIONS, CONCERNS, DOUBTS, FEAR, ALL LEAD ME ASTRAY,

**BUT I DO KNOW THAT LOVE ALWAYS FINDS A WAY**

I WILL NEVER FORGET HOW THAT ONE NIGHT I FELT,
WHEN I RECEIVED FROM YOU THIS VERY BOX AS ON ONE KNEE YOU KNELT,

IT WAS ALL WHITE, YET LITTLE DID I KNOW,
IT WOULD BE A COMMITMENT OF LIFE THAT I JUST WASN’T READY FOR OR WITH YOU TO GROW,
I FEEL HER SORROW,

FELT THE TREMBLING AS SHE HANDED IT OVER AND PLACED IT INTO MY HANDS,
UNABLE TO LET GO AS SHE GRIPPED IT TIGHTLY -AS SHE HELD ON TO ME HER HANDS SEEPING WITH SWEAT FILLED GLANDS,

AS MY ONLY MAN –

YOU WILL REMAIN AS SHE CONTINUED, INSIDE THIS PURE HEART OF MINE,
SEE MY LOVE I CAN NO LONGER WALK AND IGNORE ANY SIGNS AND HAVE COME TO REALIZE,

I CAN NO LONGER GIVE AND HOPE FOR THE BEST IN RETURN,
AND WHAT THIS BOX SHOULD SIGNIFY MY LOVE SEEMINGLY PAYED A PRICE AS IT BURNED AND BURNED AND BURNED,

I COULDN’T UNDERSTAND I THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS ALRIGHT!
NOW I STAND HERE ABOUT TO FACE MANY LONELY COUNTLESS NIGHTS,

THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, SHE TURNED AND SMILED,
ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL THE RAIN STOPPED, AND IN THE SKY NOT A CLOUD,

SHE SAID I’VE GOT TO STOP CAUSE THIS IS WAY TOO MUCH,
AND EVER SO QUICKLY SHE OPENED THE BOX UP,

I COULDN’T LOOK AT THE BOX, I COULDN’T EVEN BARE TO TAKE MY ATTENTION OFF HER EYES,
THEN SHE SHOWED ME HER FINGER AND SAID BABY I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND BEFORE I’D EVER TURN YOU DOWN OR WALK AWAY I’D HAVE TO DIE,

SURPRISE!!!

IN TURN MY LOVE ON HER OWN BENDED KNEE,
LOVED ME SO MUCH THAT IN TURN SHE PROPOSED TO ME!

IN THE SAME BOX IN WHICH TO HER I GAVE,
WAS A RING FIT FOR HER KING WITH OUR SACRED DATE OF LOVE ENGRAVED,

THE BOX.
