The Box

Personal Illustration Series
2022

I've been tossing and turning
As if I am out of the box
Admiring the colors out of my comfort
Yet I am still stuck inside
...
Once you get you use to
The suffocating comfort of the box
Tearing a concrete wall with bare hands,
Is easier than tearing your self doubt
...
Look at all the beautiful people
And the vibrance they offer
I am pale and empty in the center
Can't you see I don't belong here
...
I thought you saw me
Through the limits of my worry
To walk this through with me
But it never ends up that dandy
