flowerbox blues

flowerbox blues

the boy doesn't get it
doesn't see the road
doesn't feel the path
doesn't dare

the boy doesn't feel it
doesn't know where it comes from
doesn't get why it hurts so bad
why it hurts so deep

the boy hasn't been there
so he couldn't know
couldn't see
couldn't feel
couldn't dare

the boy doesn't want to
is perfectly content
living a flowerbox existence
cozy in a pot
happy with the natural sunlight and soil
settled into his place
only moving
to drink in
a little more sun
