Default time of reflection

I wrote this last time I was locked down just a little insite to how I was thinking at the time.





Time of Reflection


When I look across the tables and see all this sadness and gloom.
I think of all the dreams these bars and walls try to consume.
Leinberger inmates, accused of a crime,
wait for the judge to deside if we'll do time
With the waiting and nothing to do
contemplation can be depressing too.
I'm trying to get through today
so, tomorrow, I can accomplish all I need to.
I won't live in the past, I'll hold it at bay
for it's a dead end road and I must learn to
obey. Now that my crime is done,
can't wait until my time is through.
My past hold's lots of secrets
that I keep deep inside so I won't be blue.
I've come to realize I'm a prisoner, in many
ways, both on the inside and out, is how it
plays. In my time of reflection I must learn
from my past, Or condemned I'll be to repeat
it fast.

REFLECTION CAN DO SO MUCH OR THE LACK OF IT CAN DISTROY YOUR CHANCES FOR CHANGE. IT IS REALLY UP TO THE PERSON THEMSELF..
