To me, life is a box

I have to fit inside this box

But also think outside of it

But how can I do that when I am on the edge


I act like others to fit in

But I want to stand out 

I do what I enjoy

But I feel ashamed for liking my hobbies

Because people don’t like what I like

And in the end of the day

I just want to be accepted


If my thoughts could be put into words

For others to hear

There would be a thousand different conversations

In a thousand different languages

Able to be heard

But not understood


To me, life is a box

I have to fit inside this box

But also think outside of it

But I want to break out

And live my life for me
