While Away
While away
His home is in disarray
His wife now divorced finds comfort in forbidden fruits
Children out of the loop
While away
His home is not a home anymore
The hinges now hang on bare floors
Curtains tore
Sunlight glistening on cobwebs beckoning a visitor
While away
He stares at concrete floors
He has to hear the sound of slamming cell doors
While away
He dreams of home
But once he is released he sees
Nothing was waiting for him at all
While away
He lost it all...
For my brother in prison who I deeply sympathize with
His home is in disarray
His wife now divorced finds comfort in forbidden fruits
Children out of the loop
While away
His home is not a home anymore
The hinges now hang on bare floors
Curtains tore
Sunlight glistening on cobwebs beckoning a visitor
While away
He stares at concrete floors
He has to hear the sound of slamming cell doors
While away
He dreams of home
But once he is released he sees
Nothing was waiting for him at all
While away
He lost it all...
For my brother in prison who I deeply sympathize with
