Prison Life

Prison life Written 5-4-07 Edited 5-5-07 Your locked up inside For years at once With a future waiting ahead You try to reach But it slips away Gradually you back down While your life fades slowly You want to escape your past But can only move forward The choices run through your head Followed by the actions you take everyday Your love bit by bit disappears Nothing but the hate you seek But then someone shows up A beautiful sixteen year old girl She encourages you to believe You rise off your knees Move steps further And achieved a brighter future... A whole new life
