Inisde

A Poem by George Love

 

Inside
 
Stepped inside the once closed box
Seeking answers to long lost questions
Found soon the answers lay not inside
For once inside knowledge escaped
One size for all, though the size was known not
As he foundered within and seeking leave
Sinking he felt, no breath to be found
Once inside lost all himself
Absorbed now inside, blended was he
Into one mass entity, no more he was
Yet found nothing to fit, his mind still his own
Outward appearing this mass he was
Are all lost in here, and all safe outside?
All lost outside, yet safe inside?
Which was the truth, answers not one
The riddles they spoke
Confused one with truth.
Should exit be found from this narrow dark path?
Or light be shed to illumine this ground?
Which one should he seek?
The answers they gave
Sought not his own life
But one he could give
All to the box, and the box does fit all
Is it thus so, or freewill be found?
Fighting against this such pitiful tale
Voiced he now his humble appeal
To all he gave life, and to life gave us nothing
Deserved we yet answers, you do hide them now so!
Once more cried he to the faces so bland
Break yet your faces to show some cheer?
Emotions so strong, yet hearts now so weak
Rambling onward
Into, inside, forever to lose
Opening this door, he ran with his truth
Sharing to all who his word would give ear
Freely now spoken and outside the box
Truth has no size
For each now must find
How much they need to travel this path
Box it not, let it ring free.
