Poetry
Life is only short my son, with so many paths to take,
Life is an uphill struggle, with every step you make.
That’s why you must treasure life, with every second of the day,
because you may never know, when it’s your turn to go away.
See the good things in life, and never let them go,
I’ll give you the paddles, but you’ll have to row.
It will not be easy though, because life is one big test,
but no one can ask for more, once you‘ve given your best.
Always be kind to others, and respect their point of view,
if you show consideration, they’ll do the same for you.
Never take freedom for granted, of one thing you can be sure,
there are better places to be, than behind a prison wall.
Life is so much a gamble, forever throwing the dice,
I haven’t a great deal to offer, only some sound advice.
But each night I do pray, that when I’ve passed away,
I’ve helped to make your life happy, in each and every way

Self Reflection
By Sofia
Often I try to self-reflect which turns into waves of rings around me. This picture reflects my days in general; life is static, surrounded by waves around.

Beyond the Steel Mesh
By Anonymous
The cage stands bold, with its steel-clad mesh. For within its grip, it’s us it holds. Ten foot walls, of cold creme concrete. For outside we muster, like horses in stalls.

Burning Broken Thoughts
By Wolverine
I know you think you’re broken far too much to ever heal properly, like all those other folk that make life seem so real.
