SPUN OUT<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

I remember well a time,
\nand not so very long ago,
\nwhen the world I knew
\nseemed so nicely wrapped
\nin cute little boxes
\nand bright-colored bows.
\nI remember that time
\nwhen everything seemed
\nto make so much sense to me
\nand anything out of the ordinary
\nsimply left me scratching my head
\nand rolling my eyes as I wondered
\njust exactly what it was supposed to be<\/font><\/p>\n

But as I look at those little boxes now
\nand how they used to be,
\nup on the shelf and tidy,
\nso neatly wrapped and bowed,
\nI’ve come to realize
\nthat life’s simply not like that,
\nfor the boxes have been opened up,
\ndistinctions not so clearly defined,
\nideas and views that I didn’t see before
\nhave finally come tumbling out.<\/font><\/p>\n

And now when I take a closer look
\nat the things I used to see,
\nthe things that left scratching my head
\nand rolling my eyes and wondering,
\nI see them in a new and different way,
\nnot confined to boxes
\nwrapped up in cute little bows.<\/font><\/p>\n

And finally the world is clearer to me
\nas I’ve spun out of those boxes
\nthat so very much confined me
\nwithin the walls that closed
\nmy mind and my heart,
\nas I’ve spun out
\nand have been set free.<\/font><\/p>\n
