Let's figure this out

‘Let’s figure this out’, I told my mind,

Through the mesh, the answer I had to find.

The box looked the same from every side,

To open it somehow I tried.

It seemed to be sealed forever,

It had marks and had scars severe.

I went near it with jumbled thoughts,

It was an object of the intriguing sorts.

Something seemed to be trapped inside,

To try the last time or give up I had to decide.

I kept my hand on it, I froze,

Stood there for sometime in an awkward pose.

I blew off the dust, opened the lid,

Afraid was I, if scary creatures were there hid.

There was a flash of light when the box lay open,

The light blinded me; I didn’t imagine what was to happen.

Was it God I met or met myself, I know not,

But surely knew it was neither here nor was it just a thought.

The blackness in the box was a peep into my heart,

The light coming out of it screamed at me to get a new start.

The open lid told me that life has to be set free,

The breeze commanded to fly to wherever I wanted!
