Empty Box

An empty box sits in corner of the walls
Disappearing shadows walking back and forth
There was not a single street light in the dark alley
A soft sound faded as the box jerked unexpectedly

Whispering voices dissolved into the midnight skies
A gush of cold wind blew, pulling the leaves as it wandered
It moves again, in a weak attempt to break out of the box
A muffled cry broke the silence, but no one was there to hear

An empty box it remains, or so it seems to be.
