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
