Inside the Box

Inside the little cosy box
Is where I make my home.

Small and dark and quiet,
Here I can remain unknown.

It's safe inside my little box,
Cos no-one sees my face.

So when I'm feeling threatened
I can leave without a trace.

The problem with this little box -
There's only room for one.

If I need a loving touch,
I find that there is none.

I know that I will have to climb
Out of this secret place.

I'll take the risk and hope and pray
I won't be laid to waste.

Sarah
