Life Being Taken
I just arrived from court and was given 5 years.
I took a look at my mom and all I seen was tears.
I sit behind glass and only 5 months done.
Really missing home and my times just begun.
I reach for mom and feel nothing but glass.
Tears roll down my eyes and time will slowly pass.
Just as everyone else I hate this position.
If this were a book I’d wish jail was non fiction.
But I did my crime so...

“Found Myself”
I look for myself
Sometimes I think I need help
I found the greatest days in my life
As it goes by the day I was born and day I discovered
Why.
Life goes on,
I found out my life by living in the halls,
Two sheets, one blanket
Cold
Surrounded by four walls.
I want to be free like a bird
Flying high on success is what I live by

Can’t say I didn’t know cause I should have known
Now who will understand and who wont?
Can’t say I don’t notice when I see
Can’t lie to myself there’s only me
