Little Golden Box

Little Golden box, 

I need to twist your key

Your lyrics must sing back to me

Take these silent nightmares

and send them out to sea

Tell me what I need to hear

So that my thoughts can dissapear

Inside of you is memories,

Bracelets covering lies

Years of hiding under twisted leather

Can we please stay together?

Sweet chocolates await me

Rewarding my strength to hold on

Their words whispering away the fear

He's kept you sane for almost a year

Little Golden Box

Save me from a blade

I'll lock you back up with your key

Until I need to hear your lrics sing to me

Author's Note

The picture for this poem is the real box. It's a gift someone gave me and it has chocolates and bracelets inside to remind myself i never want to go back to a depressing place or self harm again. When you open the box it sings Try by Colbie Caillat.

Thanks for reading!

I loved how you used the language. So many lines stood out in the poem.
"Take these silent nightmares

The above lines were my favorite. Hidden things can haunt us. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I like the meaning of the poem, that the box is an item that remibds you of joy and helps keep you up in hard times. I kinda of have a "golden box" of my own but it is a tin box filled with little trinkets of my mom before she passed away that reminds me of the memories i have of her when i am in a state of distress.

Everyone of us needs such golden box. Sometimes, we really need to move ahead in life by keeping our past behind. And if, we have such small golden box as a companion then, it can certainly help to steal few nice moments from life. Beautiful poem you wrote..

good rhyming flow and overall feeling behind it

This is Magic, wild and free, pulsing and alive with chocolate enchantments, and peace, and light to wash away those hidden places of your beautiful soul. I loved your poetry, and loved your note as well as to your inspiration, this sweet gift. Makes me smile that you have left that painful world behind you forever. xo
