My Own Prison

My own prison These guarded walls of steel Protecting this life And everything I feel These thoughts are my own Alone Inside these catacombs Places no one has ever known The deepest fears That with no one I have ever shared A passion That I can never show No one knows For I have committed the sins This is my price to pay As I lock myself away No one can hurt me here I will not let them Get close enough to care I cannot let them Destroy what took me so long to rebuild So I lock myself here In my own prison And here I shall remain Until I can rid myself of all the pain The End By Greg P

Very nice.... I know exactly what you mean... A 24hour prison with everyone around you... yet you are alone...
