Life Sentence

This is so sad and I can relate so well. Very powerful written and thank you for sharing. Add to my favorite.

What can I say about this piece other than how heart breaking it is and how well written - you employ a rhyme scheme here that isn't used very often.

I have numerous favourite lines in this, but "In a body I don't know anymore" and "I have no chance for parole I am serving a life sentence" are the best and most effective in my humble opinion. They say so much about the way you were feeling then - 10 years on, I don't know if you feel any better about your situation - I hope so.

You have so much to offer and so much to still be grateful for from what I know of you - your poetry, your passion, and a family I know you adore. Don't hope for the end too quickly - the world needs more fighters like you in it, not less.

Cindy, this poem oozes literary class but - more importantly in my opinion - sincerity, honesty and raw emotion. Not everyone can express those things as skilfully as you have here.

All the very best and take care,
Ben
