They were trapped in a box A box that I thought I sealed heavily With a monstrosity of reassurance bolted in "I've moved on", boldly labelled at the rear Then you called my name Suddenly awakening the criminals inside the box They grew more rogue and more anxious Clawing to be within your reach

Civil With you
