The Prayer of a Prisoner

the prayer of a prisoner
a man is never born 
to be in captive 

freedom is the air 
I should breath 
in life 

freedom is the source
I should share in my 
mistake 

am not perfect 
so I am closed
up in the hands 
of those not perfect
too

we all share same crimes
in diversity
no man is born 
perfect
but in perfection 
we all yain to grow
our faith 

dont I got a right 
of pardon 
for even God 
is merciful
but with humans 
i known my quest
of spirituality
will always be like
the prayer of a prisoner
