Frozen

Frozen



All time has stopped moving for me
I live on my thoughts and past memories

My body is trapped and over working my mind
My only escape is flashbacks through time

I try reading book, playing cards and bones
But at the end of the day I still can’t go home

When I lay down to sleep, I still get no peace
Cause I wake in this place and forget all my dreams

I feel like just screaming, but what is the use
Cause I’ll still be a victim, of this corrupt systems abuse

Sometimes I wonder, what the hell have I become
For the government to trap me, and take my heart from love

A part of me is angry, and filled up full with hate
Another part is lonely, and just wants to escape

But my greatest part’s determined, not to let them break me
I’ll just sit here and slowy wait, until the day they take me

On up out those gates, but till then my time has frozen
So I’m going to do my time, sit on back and just keep hoping

For the brighter days to come, whenever that day is
I’ll get on out and buy some time until I’m forced back in

I guess I’m frozen……..
