Unfair Game

Beside the prison's bars stands my pride,
Holding the key to a road free.
Forgiveness planks floors to walk upon the rock
With soul flying against a momentum of hopes dying.
What trial could forgive, relieve the pain between my eyes?
The rules are set and I am playing to pay the debt
In a game unfair, in a game unfair.
