Something to Hide

I got the centre of attention
Hidden in a box
With several zippers
And with several locks

Wrapped in lies for protection
Each having its own meaning
Each having its own section

Now and then I think of it
And what it could do
If I let it out
What would it do?

Shake the ground or crack the walls?
Burning of bodily members?
Zombies staggering in the malls
Whispering old memories?

What if blood poured out?
What if this?
What if that?
What if?

The box is hidden
Hidden somewhere
Deep in shrouded corners
Of the places that could be

Only if and only when
I’ll take it out
Only if and only when
I’ll think of it

What if?
What if?
What if?

    Crazy!

    I love how you switched from a rhyming scheme into a more freestyle type.
    And this is so deep! So full of thought.
    It has the makings for an awesome song. I don't know if you intended it to be that way, but it is!
    Again- bravo!
