See Me Now

See Me Now I once had a wife and a home, Now I am in a cell all alone. Thinking of ways I shouldn't take blame, And defying reality from all shame. I once held a reliable position, Had keys, even made a transition. But if you see me now I am nothing, All because I played with life's blessing. I once owned a fancy car of pleasure, Now all I own is a cell that measures. Eight by eight by a high sixteen, Reminding myself that my life was a dream. But still their is something I do own, And that's pride for its shown. That patience loves to wait, For time is its only date.
