There was two people
sitting across from on another
neither one looking at the
other
Both sentenced to serve for
life due to a knife
that caused pain and misery
for the whole world to see
It was televised on
national tv
the whole world sat back
and watched it for free
As two men was sentenced
for three seperate crimes
the jury reached their verdict
in three days time
The evidence stacked against them
through pictures and videos
some wondered if they were
set free, what would they do?
They already murdered
the people they once knew
violence is in their nature
that's nothing new
Some say they should of
already taken their last breath
for the crimes they comitted
they should of been sentenced
to death
But due to lack of supervision
they get a chance to live
even though they did something
that no one can forgive
They killed an entire family
watched them as they
suffered in pain
as they they took their lives
in vein
These two men now sit
across from one another,
each serving life
due to the use of a knife
Looking through a set
of prison bars
I wonder why my frredom
wouldn't stay
and why the world outside
me now fades away
I know I've done things
that I regret and can not
change
I'd give anything if
people would forget
so I could rearrange
My life and everything
in it to the way it use to be
before this inner misery
please somone help me
please set me free
From this world of
emotional pain and dispair
so I won't have to worry
who and who doesn't care
Everyone makes mistakes
that's what people use to say
with how life is now
children can't even go onto
a playground and play
I don't understand
it's not olike this was planned
the last time that I was free
it felt like a dream in which
I could barely see
There was three kids playing
outside and no one else inside
three shots rang out
it happened so fast that no one
could shout
Now I sit here at the end of my days
all I can do is sit and pray
that the crieme I didn't commit
will be something I'll to pay
and have to regret
all I have left now is the question
why..?

That was great. I like it a lot. :)
good job
Wow...nice...your poetry is awesome...
I found it sad
WOW....this is good!!!
Here lies a man of seven years
described his inner heaven
through tears of fear
as he waited in a cold in empty
cell, he contemplated would
could truly be his next scene in hell
He watched as the time went by
to scared to move or cry
what do you say to a man
at the end of the day who's fate's
already planned to the date
So at the end of the day he watches
out through the bars of his cell
picturing when or where his sanity
could of possibly fell
He then looks down at his pad and pin
trying to search for the right words to
write in the end that wouldn't offend
the only friend he had left
Now with only hours to go
where this life ends no one knows
cause for this man that once had
everything planned, down to the
tasks at hand
He now realizes that life is what
make of it, that's something
no one should forget or regret
So now when he looks outside
to try and figure out how he
feels on the inside
he looks back to keep on track
so that everything he now haves
or anything he could have
stays in sight and no longer just
be seen as a vision of fright
Here lies a man that had it all
and instead of taking a fall
and having his life slow to a crawl
he chose to live his life to the best
and left all the pain, hate and rage
laid to rest

WOW....have you ever thought of being a poet...
Lovely verse
lovely rhyme
lovely flow
Dude...you are a poet...
=]
Keep on writing...
You have mad talent
About a year ago
I received what I know
now is the greatest
gift in my life
A child with the most
beautiful soul
a child full of life
and not strife
A child that lights
up a room when he smiles
all the while can sleep
so peacefully at night
I'm truly proud to say
that child's my son
he's truly the greatest
part of my day
He amazes me more
then any dream
he keeps my life from
falling apart at the
seams
I could be having the
worst day
and all he has to do is
laugh to brighten
my day in every way
He's the whole reason
that I'm still living
and the main reason
I haven't given up
Cause without him in my
life I wouldn't know
where I'd be
or what I'd want to see
He truly is a blessing
that brightens my day
it's because of my son
that I enjoy my life
in every way

Isn't that the way prison is? You kill, rape, rob and get to sit in a well cooled climate with free food and water?
