  • MAIL CALL

    Darkness and Loneliness fill my cell

    w/pain and fear too great to yell.

     

    I wait for the Mailman to deliver to me

    as I wipe away tears that no one will see.

     

    I Pray so sincere with head raised above

    “Please, God, soon send a letter of love”.

     

    I long to gaze upon pages so dear

    with wishes to bring my loved ones near.

     

    Words of diamonds on pages of gold

    a message from heaven as their story is told.

     

    “We Love you, Miss you, Pray you’ll soon be free”

    a treasure filled envelope just for me.

     

    Please bring memories of joys I once knew

    family, friends and things we used to do.

     

    The darkness and pain of my cell will prevail

    as my name was just called for Mail.
