My sentence? Life imprisonment Trapped within an invisible cell Condemned to endure a silent torture In a self-created hell. Each day the same as the last one A routine known off by heart Granted family and friends play the role of extras But I always star as the leading part. The role of the happy-go-lucky Who laughs and always seems overjoyed Who comes to the aid of the extras But happy-go-lucky inside feels destroyed. Completely defeated serving this life sentence It seems theres no hope of gaining parole Questioning a future outside of this self made prison Ill mental health finally taking its toll.

Prisoner
My sentence? Life imprisonment Trapped within an invisible cell Condemned to endure a silent torture In a self-created hell. Each day the same as the last one A routine known off by heart Granted family and friends play the role of extras But I always star as the leading part. The role of the happy-go-lucky Who laughs and always seems overjoyed Who comes to the aid of the extras But happy-go-lucky inside feels destroyed. Completely defeated serving this life sentence It seems theres no hope of gaining parole Questioning a future outside of this self made prison Ill mental health finally taking its toll.
