The Prisoner by Felix
Only a prisoner can feel the loneliness
of brick and steel
The Prisoner
by Felix
Only a prisoner can feel the loneliness
of brick and steel
Where concrete walls and iron bars
obscure the trees and dim the stars
Shutting out reality and
straining human sanity
Who longs for early morning light
to scatter the demons of the night
The breakfast tray can only dim
the hunger pains that rage within
Who else can count each lonely day
as it slowly grinds the years away
And fantasy must take the place of
loving touch or friendly face
Our visitors may come and go
but few of them will ever know
