Prisoner

'Thoughts of a prisoner'


The journey is long,
Painful imprisoning.
There's no freedom,
Any more.

I sleep to be free,
But my dreams aren't peaceful.
Scary things happen,
For which I want to get off.

I need to get off.
For I'm not a criminal,
What did I do?
Imprisoned by my thoughts,

Once proved right.
No hope of escape,
Still on suicide watch.

No space,
No freedom.
Stop the world,
I've had enough.

The journey must end
With freedom,
Release from pain.
I can't carry on in prison
For something
I didn't do.
