Thre years lost

by layla   Aug 27, 2012


A loss of breath, when I herd the news
Confused and upset, when I herd of their views
Three years they want, final offer they say
Motionless, my color went gray

I didn't expect it, like a dangerous wave
If you lie in it's path, you will not be saved
I'm scared that its coming, the clock goes tic toc
My body cant move, I froze out of shock

I wait for your honor, the robed man walks in
My fate in his hands, my chances run thin
For a minute my ears, hear nothing at all
For my body shows fear, I wait for the fall

My family and friends, around me they stand
I look at them sadly, this was never planned
My mother she cry's, my dad holds her tight
I look in their eyes, this just isn't right

The tears start to fall, yet nothings been said
I feel that the system, has me misread
And ill pay the price, locked away for three years
My future has ended, and here comes the tears

I then hear the voice, of the man in the robe
The harsh tone I hear, sharp like a strobe
He speaks all these words, I can't understand
Then I hear my fate, they ask for my hand

For a minute confusion, take over my mind
My hands they want, please put them behind
I look to my mother, and I see her pray
Then it all hits me, I'm going away
