Just an animal

3ft by 3ft sqaure that's only 3 feet tall

That's what I'm being shoved in

Everytime i try to escape

I feel like I get pushed back again

A different person everytime

I can't even describe the pain

I can't describe the frustration

Or the persistancy 

Why keep trying if I'm just gonna go right back in?

Why give antoher shove to fail again

because another day in that damn box

is a day wasted

A damn day without trying to get out of that stupid box

is a day without purpose

And I will continue to try

Until every person who I could possibly fight through

Is gone.

Why here bad news when you're already upset?

Why know you're going to spend the night in that wooden Box And continue to try?

Sometimes I ask myself why?

And sometimes I don't know

But it's okay to not know

Because you know there's a purpose somewhere

In the back of your mind

Being pushed 

Into a Box that's 3ft by 3ft that's only 3ft tall

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I just I don't even know, but sometimes it's oky to not know, because there's a purpose somewhere, that you just have to keep fighting to discover. This world can be a terrible place, and is constantly a terrible place to us. So why don't we all just give up? Because we all know there is some purpose out there, and us as humans have the constant drive to find it.

It reminds me of how some

It reminds me of how some people treat their pets.... that's all I keep thinking about when I read this. Oh...and once there was a child abuse case I saw on tv where the parents were sick themselves and they had grand children they were unable to take care of. So they made these cage looking things they kept them in so they wouldn't wander the house and get hurt .... crazy, huh.... sad.

...I wouldn't know what to call it because I don't know what you wrote it about... maybe "just a cat"....or "just" an animal.

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Oh wow!!! I am so

Oh wow!!! I am so honored! 

Yea...makes you really feel for the precious kitties and pups. They love us so...and unconditionally. It's like we do not even know real love when we see it. It has to start with the parents teaching the children what love really is maybe, and not all the material things in life.
