here i stand in my prison cell
with the warden watching over me
here i am behind the bars
sealed away from all of society
sealed away from the harm
away from all the pain
away from the destruction the earth brings about itself
here in my prison cell
with the warden watching over me
they're trying so hard to kill me
but what they don't know is
that I'm already dead
here i am truly the living dead
my blood coursing through my veins
all this as i stand in my prison cell
and as the warden watches over me
i killed my family
killed my friends
killed my ex-boyfriend
and i don't care
i was dead before and i am now
i can't stand to be here on earth
why don't they just kill me quickly
instead of trying to let me die slowly
don't they know that i can't die
here i stand in my prison cell
with the warden watching over me
standing here inside
convicted for the murders i committed
sealed away from all the horrors of society
away from all the pain
away from all the harm
trying to live with myself ain't no easy thing
killed my family
killed my friends
killed my ex-boyfriend
but ultimately killed myself
was released from all the pain i carried with me all the time i lived
here i stand in my prison cell
with that damn warden watching over me

Very ill but vivid feellings! I hope this was just a poem for taking ones life will not free you from any prison! Life is to beautiful to live in a cell!

tense because the pain in it comes from the depths of my being,from the depths of my soul that is made up of all the suffering in which the pain i've felt brings me.

A very tense piece. One that is not understood easily, or rather the experience from wich it is derived. It is a brave thing for an author to express themselves in such a way after having had had the finger pointed at them in such a way and also now knowing they will most likely be shuned because of their expression. But How Can a person as this author not express themselves?
