escape from the prison of sadness


i am in a prison full of bars that laugh with hate in a room that cannot see the stars waiting to be consumed in this state i wish to see them once more the vast starry skies i close my eyes and lay on the floor and to my great surprise they appear and give hope to my dream of being free to move up above the slope towards my destiny free from this strain to speak free to express my thought free of the constant 'inside freak' free from the grinning lot who call me crazy and all sort i wake up to find the gleaming sun telling that battles are meant to be fought so i wake to another day full of fun with another lesson to me taught
