The Box of Rage
by T'shandra
He doesn't know how much more he can take
More pain, more fear, more confusion.
He took his fear, his pain, his rage
And built a box.
Carefully constructed
To keep out all that he might feel
For one short second of joy brought
Long hours of pain
He thickened walls
Wrought of rage
Sealed every crack
And pulling behind him the lid
He sealed himself
Into the safety of nothingness.
