 Prison

 
Bars inside the brain
Brain-- an organ needed to function
Functioning is hard when you're struck down
Down with the sickness, the illnesses that can consume you
You are strong at times and yet a fragile being
Being-- a human whose blood flows through veins with lungs and breath of air
Air out your transgressions
Transgressions which hold you back
Back to the beginning if only to etch a strand of life without pain
Pain-- a hurt that never went away
Away from childhood emotional and physical abuse
Abuse my father put me through has made me into a mess
Messed up with anxiety high, depression bad, and an unknown personality disorder
Disorder, who orders this shit?
Shit, haha shit bricks, work wonders and shit cucumbers
Cucumbers-- filled with water
Water-- a necessity of life
"Life. Electric word, life it means forever and that's a mighty long time." 
Time--it moves so slowly and yet goes by so fast
Fast like a wind blowing through your hair
Hair--I'm ready to go bald again
Again I ponder my life and wonder what is best
Best be moving as it's early and I need to start my day
Day--another day in which God has given me on this earth
Earth--cherish it, embrace it for we only get one and she is hurting right now
Now we must stand as one and fight the enemy
Enemy--he lurks constantly as he is no longer just the monster under your bed
Bed--I need to leave this bed
Bed--a place of security and rest
Rest well my friends and be at peace for there is someone so much bigger watching over us if only we would just believe
Believe in something, anything for life is too short to go aimlessly slugging through life
Life--my life, your life, we all matter
Matter, mater, crater, waiter, purple monkey, guppy, puppy, poo
Poo--haha, it's early
Early to bed early to rise
Rise up and let us start this day
Day dreamer
Dreamer forever
Forever and ever, Amen!
