Shipping Me

Romantic poetry (if you have any questions you can ask me)

                    Shipping Me

      Shipping packages is what i do

                                   Tornado,rain, or shine will not stop my crew

     I work all day, i sleep all night

 Nothing ever scared me until this fright

      Nothing scary, nothing wrong

 Until i saw the never ending dark, so long

           No food, no water drops

                    Just a box

 

      One eye hole for me to see

      Only put there for shipping me

       Was i meant to be taken away

       Will my soul be missed, please say

      Did all of humanity wish me gone

       Are the villains silenting my song

       Or have i been the enemy all along

       Will this container encase me for long

        Knocking,punching, screaming out

        Will they even care about a shout

        Ripping,Grasping, Tearing about

          Impenetrable as a house

        Days passed or was it months

         Was i possibly human once

         I can’t remember if i had a name

          What happened yesterday

           

            Hot winters sun

            Cold summers ice

       I guess i have seen it all

           Contrary to delight

                                     More days passed and something struck

       My mind suddenly made up

 Look at the bright side, i’ve always said

                            For the scenes i’ve seen has made my heart a strong red

        Golden hills of majesty

                                 I gazed at in anguish but more joyful than a dream

      Why would i give all of that up

                            Just to live, to work and to sleep; that’s simply not enough

                               

                                 The eye hole not a torture of imprisonment, but a gift

   I no longer care if i will be missed

                                     I’ve seen wonders a human has never seen

   All from an eye hole view of shipping me

        Dropped in a cold river

           Turned a pale blue

     Dropped on the hot desert sand

        Completely different hue

                                    For i have seen magic, a bright moon, a sun of fire

      I keep my eyes open all night with no tire

        No time for eating, no time for drink

        Only time for scenery and to think

           I wish this container to forever seal

              Never leaving, never to feel

           Life is so cruel with too much mystery

  I just want to stay on this boat looking on the sea

          

    So much hurt, sorrow, and pain

                                  If i stayed here, i’d never have to see him again

    Blessed idea!  I shall stay here

                                 Cold, hungry, and sick, but never with so much cheer

                                     

                             Somehow threw in the air and forgot about gravity

       No longer was a part of their humanity

      Box crumpled in a heap

            I was in far too deep

          

          Ocean waves right and left

          Even i not too hardy for death

      Soggy cold box encrusted with snow

             Nowhere left for me to go

         Perished from the drop, but no fear

            No sorrow i had; not near

           No human ever so alive and free

           Free like a kite i was you see

          Soul went up, but my eyes stayed

        Eventually my empty vessel was saved

        Creatures wept and took pity on me

               But honestly when i saw them, i was thinking the very same thing

"More days passed and something struck

My mind suddenly made up

Look at the bright side, i’ve always said."
