The Box (Free verse) by EouSou
As I caught myself twirling into my concentration, I became aware of my perplexity. Trying to unravel the significance of my life, and terrified of becoming a part of them. Shall I lay down in shame and wither in my misery? Or hold the very aptitude to rise above the crowd?

Down the ladder: The dancers

There is a new slant here that I find refreshing somehow - but I feel like there should be something more.

Intesting language - yess..... interesting....

I liked the last sentence, the rest has a little too much cliche to it

I think you should make me a sandwich and get naked.

Sometimes I feel like I am living in a box.

Woke up this mornin'
Closed in on both sides
Nothin' doin'
I feel resistance
As I open my eyes
Someone's foolin'

I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
Cuz I know what's goin' on
In your mind

I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box

Life goes in circles
Around and around
Circulating
I sometimes wonder
What's movin' underground
I'm escaping

I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
Cuz I know what's goin' on
In my mind

I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box

(guitar solo)

Livin'
Ahh ha

I found a way to break through this cellophane bag
Cuz I know what's goin' on
In your mind

I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box
I'm a livin' in a box
I'm a livin' in a cardboard box

I'm a livin' I'm a livin'....I'm a livin'
I'm a livin', I'm a livin'....I'm a livin'
I'm a livin' in a box

I'm a livin' in a box....
