Life Sentence

Life Sentence

Within your brain 
an interrogation room 

Your subconscious 
the law enforcement 

Your insecurities 
the accused culprit 

Your mind 
the crime scene 

Your heart 
held hostage 

Your loved ones 
the many victims 

Your subconscious 
keeps whispering 

“You did it”
but you refuse to 
LISTEN 

Eventually the whispers 
resort to yelling 
FRUSTRATION 

You become 
stressed out 
TIRED

Does it really matter? 
you ask yourself 
REGARDLESS 

With or without 
a confession 
 

You still are 
serving a life sentence 
GUILTY

Inner battle can really feel like this.  I walk about feeling riddled with guilt. I have often felt I am serving a life sentence. Really good write x
