Prisoner

Folder: 
poems

I am being held captive

Against my will in this life

They force a pulse, control my heart

Feed me tablets that make me tired

Stop my urges that are so bad for me

Gave me a pretty white jacket

That doesn't allow movement of the arms

I'm really feeling sore

They explain what is happening today

Not the I have much choice

Do you have any questions?



Yes I have some questions for you

I didn't do anything wrong

I didn't hurt anybody

But I'm told I am a danger

To myself and to others

Why are you doing this to me?

Why do you punish me in this way?

Maybe I will never understand

At least have the decency

To put me out of my misery

Free me from this prison that is my mind
