New And A Poem

I was going to start a new blog. I clicked the new blog button and was about to come up with an incredibly brilliant blog name, but I couldn't. I don't want to give up on this blog. I know I haven't posted in forever and I know I'm bad, but I won't stop. So, here's a new poem.

You put my life in a box and shipped it away
The years were packed up, day by day
I'd be sad, if they mattered at all
Winters and summers, springs and falls
You had papers piled high, tables and racks
Weeks, days, months, all in little stacks
I put my thoughts in a box and sent it to sea
It sailed the world and came back to me
There were stories in there that weren't mine
Some spoke dully and some had a shine
The box was filled with ideas and such
There came a point I added too much
The box bled out in rays of light
We put it in a bigger box and locked it tight
