Jail
Jail-locked behind bars
For the next two to twenty
Imprisoned in your own mind
Locked up with only memories for companions
Learn quickly who to trust
No one but yourself
You won’t survive
Let me take his place- I will
Jail- another word for my life
Purgatory- between life and
Death – held with in a state
Where time stands still for you
While going on for the rest
Will she wait for you?
Or find someone new?
No one will know till it’s too late
Jail – locked imprisoned within
Your own mind with
Nothing but memories as reminders
Of how it used to
Be on the outside.
