box

As I walked to work one morning

I realized I am holding something

A box, between both my hands

I grasp it tight, tight as I can

I keep on walking, who knows why

Right, I have to go to work, at least try

But there is a burning question in my brain

What’s in the damn box, I am going insane

I think about dropping it, but no

Silly, I wouldn’t stoop so low

Wait, what’s silly about that at all?

I can’t say, maybe a friend I will call

He doesn’t know.

He says, just go.

I forget where I’m going, give me a clue?

Maybe inside the box I will find the truth

Who gave me this box, I can’t remember

There’s no return label, no return to sender
