There is a table with a chair that I have sat upon. 
On the table there's a candle and a small wooden box. 
I watch candlelight reflect upon the wood and lose time 
As I ponder what would happen if I should pick its locks. 

I feel lost within this limbo of curiosity. 
There is a war of willpower going on in my mind. 
I know I shouldn't force the lid of the box wide open 
Or am I just over analyzing what I may find? 

I am afraid of my own personal Pandora's box. 
What if I step closer and I feel pain that I can't handle? 
I want to open the lid and see what is inside there. 
Would I see fits of laughter or rage lit by the candle? 

I will not gamble with my heart and risk Pandora's fate 
Even when I could amuse myself with contemplation. 
I'll sit on the chair that was never mine to begin with, 
Then divert my eyes from the rectangular temptation. 

How come even when I close my eyes I am so haunted... 
Making me want to beg for the knowledge this box doth keep? 
I'm torn in different directions but know the better path... 
Box unopened; will its contents be whispered in my sleep?
