Cardboard Box

Cardboard box, without a lock, without a key, that's where my heart lives.

It's tattered edges and peeling tape, it once was strong but soon it will break.

In this box I hold my love,
I hold my hate, I hold my trust, I hold my fate.

And this cardboard box I will repair, tape up its edges and paint it with polka dots of hopes and dreams.

So that one day this box will be strong and tough, but this time I might just add a lock

Latrodectus

@Latrodectus

Hi, I'm Latrodectus, but you can call me Lat. I'm 14 and I love to write. I write at least 1 or 2 times a week and write everything from acrostics to opinion posts (and everything in-between) I'm also writing my first ever book/full story "The Darkworld Chronicles." I write to help find myself and who I really am and to help me deal with life's problems and stresses. I like drawing, acting, singing and gymnastics but don't like algebra, sport or swimming. My interests vary wildly (as do my works) and I feel it gives me some variety. Thanks for reading this, have fun in my world of writing :) ~Lat

Goblet

In my draw there lives a goblet. It's useless because it dissolves when wet. I hid it away in a dry corner. Like an obnoxious hoarder. It will never come out of its cage.

What is a window. What we all look through, To see where once our simple kind was new, To dream all day that we are somehow free, Of where we are and who we're meant to be.
