My Passion

By IS

The passion I have for writing is a feeling of peace and tranquility
The desire to inspire myself ambitiously
A sense of freedom without actually being free
Unlocking my chains with this poetic key
Exceeding beyond this feeling of imprisonment
My mind directs these orchestrated sentences.  
Creatively creating these lines of inspiration
Carefully planting my seed on this literary plantation
I open the eyes to many who listen
A 19 year old convict writing from prison
Forever devoted to this paper and pen
My passion…My love…My new best friend.
