His head held high
ready for a world where he can reside
in the comforting arms of a loved one dear
a place where he's no longer the meed and the meer
His life preserved in those who are true
the poetry of his lifetime
shows his trial long overdue
An ordinary boy
set out so far
in a world that almost destroyed him
to live behind those bars
