Prison Poetry · Longing

Do you know and do you careI think about you everywhereIf I could be there now and thenI'd know true happiness once again

Life is a game and I'm behindnot because I'm wrong or blindbecause of things I can't controlSadness flows in endless rolls.

Tears like rain, and pain a knifeall are ways to explain my lifeLife without love is hellAnd hell is life without you

Why can't people love like we do?

Why must my heart bleed?without love, the seed?I love you today and tomorrowReturned or forgotton, unchanged

My love works mornin' to nighta sweet tired princess, deserving heavenIf she knew, I could give that nowThe sun is just rising on the misty morning....
