Jail

Going back to jail? Damn in what did I fail? The thought of going back gives me goosebumps 
and turns me pale. What am I doing wrong that I might go back? I chill in the streets but 
dont sell weed or crack. All I do is walk around like a zombie, so I wonder ''damn why me''? 
I'm damn near happy, ready to settle down and start a family. Why would they take away 
my freedom? Isthis gods plan for me? I cant go back to a place where I have no rights, 
where i can hardly sleep at night, where everyday is a struggle and a fight. I wont make it 
this time, I will defenantly start to lose my mind. I wont be learning a lesson, I'll die 
inside...I'll be dead, but alive!!!!
