today i am a square
predictable, straight, and fair
my edges wind and curve
to spite the minds unnerve

i feel the greatest depths
i walk along the fence
but couldn’t see a sign
the dark was far too bright

today i’ve lost my curls
no longer is there a girl
sworn to see what’s true
that was before i met you

sit here in this cold dark room
too easy to get lost in you
suddenly there comes a light
will i be free this time?
