Within a room somewhere
Sits Pandora
Holding the box that
She opened long ago
When her heart was curious and naive

Now her heart is heavy
And tears fill her eyes
Hope is weak
Hope is shriveling
If only she hadn’t
Set loose the monsters

She wishes people
Saw hope
The way she does
Leaking out slowly
Filling the air
Pulsating, Shaking
Glowing

Maybe if they understood
They would hold on
Just a little longer
For their monsters
To die

Because in the end
The hero always wins
You just need to be there
To See it
Shane Oltingir May 2014
When I gave you my heart in Pandora's box,*
locked and sealed, and safe from me,
You did not taint nor break my heart,
You simply lost the key--

*It is there where all my hatred starts...
Yoni Sav Mar 2014
I always had a cell
somewhere I would dwell
A place where I could hide
what I feel inside

I was so alone
as if you had known


One day you arrived
and left the past behind
You opened up the door
like no one done before

Pandora of reality
a mirror of insanity


As the bats all fled away
you decided you will stay
with the only dove
my love

I wish that I could give
a fraction of what I recieve


You must understand
you are more than just a friend
you are so much more to me
because you
                                                               set me
                                                                                                                  free
You know this one is for you. This is not my Orion, but my stars are starting to take shape.
