(It's Inside Of Me)

As I look up to the sky
To a place so very high
Let me tell you what I see
a blue sky starin down on me
Most times I see a mirror
of the boy I use to be
But lately I've seen the man
Inside of me
The past is poison
So the future is our cure
Even when I'm doing wrong
Inside it seems so pure
Right before I make that decision
My mind is never sure
How can I love you
When I don't love myself
This duo inside of me
Is pleading for your help
Change come everyday
But it's harder to do
We all need a friend to talk to
Trust stands in the way
It's a ongoing issue
Maybe our problem are of those we lost
It hurts cause we never had a chance
To say I miss you
But only weakness will come
If you don't seek comfort
Only you can sell your life short
But don't give up on thy
Cause as the poem say
It's inside of me...

Hello Anthony. I read your blog posts and poems and have really liked them. My name is Alyssa and I am asking a few people on the betweenthebars.org blogs some questions for my own research and was wondering if you would answer them if you felt like it. What are ways that some men deal with missing women in prison? Do you think men change not being around women? If so in what ways? How do you think this affects them when they are released? How do men deal with their "needs"? Do you think men become more reserved or dont know how to deal with a womens "touch" when released? ;) I just want to hear your input on this out of curiosity. Speak your mind. You don’t have to hold back. Nothing will offend me. Haha. I would love to maybe see a blog post about this too. Thank you. Hope to hear back soon:)

I see your address has also changed so hopefully between the bars will send it here.
