Box Of Sorrows
Box Of Sorrows
Oh Mother, come down from heavens
And play with me
Hug me, scold me if need be
For now, there are flowers
in the box of sorrows
That you gifted me.
Oh lover, come from the country
And stare at me
Long to meet me and wait for me
For then I was not deep enough
For the box of tears to nourish me.
Oh child, come and sit in my lap
And giggle
Blabber and loiter around me
For now, I have showers of love
From the box of shadows
To offer for thee.
