And Prison Walls

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

disconnected from the crowd, the ones I wanted to connect with

Feeling a little singled out, without the fortitude to change it

Write what feeds upon the soul and pen emotions that come flowing

Write of pathways marked with goals, without the courage to get going

A ball of indecision, ignorance and sabotaging innocence

not sure how I got this way, repent, prepay for debt and consequence

Still, surprisingly surprised, when picking teams, I stand alone, again

A great acquaintance in a pinch, but don’t quite cut it, for permanent friends

Disappointments make you strong? Well then, I am fucking Superman

Cause that reflection in the mirror, barely exists, and no one gives a damn
