    Mindless Abyss

    Away in a prison cell
    A restless heart lies
    Confined less by the concrete walls
    Than his constant reminder of his downfalls

    Away in a prison cell
    A guilty conscience lingers
    Consumed by inner confliction
    Through the pain of self-conviction

    Away in a prison cell
    A broken soul searhes
    Torn by sin within
    Never which did heart intend

    Away in a prison cell
    A helpless life is yearning
    Longing for the warm embrace
    Of freedom's long lost face

    Ah, now you are not alone in that prison cell for you have left the readers a key to your inner thoughts and existence. Great flow of themed thought, I felt it could have gone on - however the poet always knows the right ending! Write ON!

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
