Poems, sonnets, haikus, odes, songs, prose; every one of them are trapped in a little black box— a pen, the only key that unlocks my heart for everyone. A box teeming with all my pains in it; secrets or lies? There’s an eternity in that box- all my verses are in it; some remain locked till the inevitable death of another disregarded poet. Oh, my little black box; filled with thoughts- your love is less;- in an honest jest; laughing at most of my secret ideas— ones far from their best, further less. Writing something to forget as something less; pieces I beget as children; I leave them so fatherless.                                   __Trapped in that little black box!__

Little black box
Poems, sonnets, haikus, odes, songs, prose; every one of them are trapped in a little black box— a pen, the only key that unlocks my heart for everyone. A box teeming with all my pains in it; secrets or lies? There’s an eternity in that box- all my verses are in it; some remain locked till the inevitable death of another disregarded poet. Oh, my little black box; filled with thoughts- your love is less;- in an honest jest; laughing at most of my secret ideas— ones far from their best, further less. Writing something to forget as something less; pieces I beget as children; I leave them so fatherless.                                   __Trapped in that little black box!__
