I'm stuck with a dilema

I'm stuck with a dilemma! Where I see a lot of people come and visit these guys in here and it's not derived from jealousy. After a while you see how nice and down to earth they are, and you can't help but care.

And it eats at me knowing if only they knew the guys and the things they do, and knowing they are playing with people's lives and happiness using them for their own ill purposes like it's a game.

They put on this big façade of the person they would like them to be, but on the inside, they are the complete opposite, lying to all.

Partaking in drugs still while in prison, drinking fermented poison, taking pills on a daily basis, and indulging in homosexuality, they have beautiful girls coming to see them only to go back into the prison abusing the tails of homosexuals.

It gets to me because I don't feel like it's right to play with the emotions of others, stringing them along for who knows how long.

Is it even my business? If I take it upon myself to tell them and they confront them letting them know I was the one to give them up, then I'm labeled a snitch and apt to defending myself creating into a fight in which I lose my status, my job, and possibly a set-off ruining my eligibility for my track driving license.

It just plays on my conscious because I know and it feels as though I am deceiving them. One in particular even has the homosexual's name he is in love with tattooed on his wrist hidden under his arm band! And he fronts as though he's madly in love.

I'm not writing this out of any insensitivity either. Who knows. In my own way I'm helping someone else be aware of who they encounter.

So ladies, remember: some of the pretty boys inside here "could" be looking fly not only for you.

You deserve better and I know there's no way for you to really know, but don't give up hope because someone will be true to heart and by it all out for you to know the true man that he "really" is. You just have to look in front of your eyes and not in your heart only.

Because there are good men inside these walls whom would love nothing more than a chance.

I colored a little something to brighten y'alls day out there. I know I haven't done much lately. I guess because sometimes I feel no one really reads much, but who really knows for certain.

I can feel a little better by helping and making an effect at making someone's day better or by knowing good men do exist.
