A Prisoner's Dream

I was born a free child but my deeds have kept me in chains
Life, time and mind are gifts to all
I have all three but cannot use two.
I seized my time and my mind but cannot make maximum use of them
Life brought to me the dish that I prepared with my own hands
Now I spend my years having the dish I prepared but don’t enjoy
With knowledge of the facts that lie before me, I have nothing left but one dream
This dream of mine I wish to come true
The dream of possessing my time and mind and making up for all I have done.
To walk the aisle of my own life and to see the making up I have made
The day I will walk off these walls of heavy gates and locks.
The day of my new beginning, that’s my Prisoner’s dream.
