    Haiku Part 4: Appeal

     I was found guilty
    A clock strikes with surreal peace
    I think of deceased

    In my room, I lie
    Surrounded by my denial
    For another trial

    I eat my last meal
    Words cannot tell how I feel
    Young death is unreal

    Minutes are freedom
    Slipping through the hands of some
    When will people come?

    I see blurry faces
    Those who relate to my case
    Night time shrouds the place

    While people watch, I die
    Trying to remain conscious
    I only ask 'why?'
