While there's no salvation From a doubtful offense, He drains in a pained cell Watching stars from a hole That ignites burnt desire; To soar the eagle's flight And imprisoned dream bears uncertainty when sundown fades off, that rams jailhouse chains pinching more bruised nights. Yet… he still grasps strong will’s escape, and burn candles holding time's grace. In his world… fervor roams; bathed by hope reaping new days free!

There are so many prisons--all different kinds. Escaping from them requires some very careful reflection indeed!

Incredible poem. This film was supposed to win the Oscar but if I remember right, Forrest Gump got the trophy. Still, Shawshank continues to be a favorite movie.
