This Place

They have locked up in this place,my heart,it quickens its pace,things around me I have to 
face and a ciggerette I want to taste!Medication this is not what I need,what I need is my 
mind to be free,so I drop to my knees crying hard indeed!There Ipray for a better day 
andIwonder what people see when they look at me,God help me please!
