About This Poem
Wrongful Imprisonment
Here I live in darkness
Dreadful fright and fear
Kept from all my fam'ly
And friends that once were near
Why am I imprisoned
What has been my wrong?
Why this dreadful sorrow
Instead of happy song?
Naught has been my trespass
Innocent am I
Robbed of all life's goodness
Condemned in jail to die
