In my Heart – Prison Poetry
October 6, 2012 ¤ Listed in : Jose Ocampo - Poetry
I’ve seen the stars, moon and sun yet none compare to this darkness in my life.
The seasons came, the seasons went, pages out my calendar falling as leafs on an autumn tree.
I stop to wonder, God when will it end?
As I imagine myself sitting on a beach staring at an endless sea.
That seems to never end, just as my years in here have been.
I look myself in the mirror and see images of my life.
I’m no longer the young man I once used to be.
My loving mother and father shrinking on me.
I’ve paid by societies standards.
I’ve paid by Gods say.
I’ve paid in blood, bone and any emotional way.
Loneliness is my constant companion, a trusting hand I no longer know.
I pray the day comes when I can speak of my life as “once upon a time”.
And it will finish with a “happy ending”.
In the meantime, God send me a trusting friend.
