FOR THOSE I'VE LEFT BEHIND

NO TEARS OF SORROW SHALL BE SHED, FOR THEY WOULD ONLY BE IN VAIN;
ONLY TEARS OF JOY AND HAPPINESS, SINCE NOW I HAVE NO PAIN;
MY LIFE WAS A SHORT BUT HAPPY ONE, FILLED WITH BLESSINGS & WITH LOVE;
NOT MY HEART HAS FOUND CONTENTMENT, AS I'M WITH THE LORD ABOVE;
MY FAMILY HSA COME TO WELCOME ME, TO GUIDE MY SOUL TO REST;
TO THE OENS THAT I HAVE LEFT BEHIND, YOU SHALL ALL BE BLESSED;
FOR THE LOVE WE'VE SHARED IS ETERNAL, IT STRENGTHENS WITH EACH PASSING DAY;
KNOW THAT I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, IN A VERY SPECIAL WAY;
THOUGH MY VOICE WILL NOT BE HEARD, MY BODY YOU WILL NOT SEE;
LET YOUR THOUGHTS AND CONSCIENCE GUIDE YOU, AND KNOW IT COMES FROM ME;
KEEP ME IN YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS, AND MY MEMORY REMAIN;
THINK OF OUR JOYOUS AND HAPPY TIMES, AND LET MY LOVE HEAL YOUR PAIN;
TOGETHER WE SHALL BE FOREVER, EVEN TOHUGH WE'RE NOW APART;
FOR THE MANY REASONS ORU LIVES HAVE TOUCHED, WE'RE IN EACH OTHERS HEARTS;
SO PLEASE DON'T CRY IN SORROW, LET MY LIGHT SHINE THROUGH;
FORE THE LORD HAS BROUGHT ME HOME WITH HIM, SO THAT ONE DAY I MAY WELCOME YOU.

BUONGIORNO, I JUST WANTED TO SHARE THAT WITH EVERYONE. DURING THE HOLIDAYS MOST PRISONERS EXPERIENCE DEPRESSION, I'M NO DIFFERENT. MY REGRET, MY DEPRESSION, IT'S NOT JUST HOW I DESTROYED MY LIFE, JUSTINE'S LIFE, IT'S ALSO HARD TO GET PAST THAT I KILLED SOMEBODY. WHY DID I PICK UP THE HAMMER, I DIDN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT, I JUST PICKED IT UP. I RELIVE THAT DAY AT LEAST ONCE A DAY SINCE IT HAPPENED. EVEN THOUGH I CAN'T CHANGE IT, I STILL CAN'T STOP WONDERING. NOW I WATCH MY DAUGHTER SUFFER IN LIFE BECAUSE I WAS NEVER THERE FOR HER. THIS WILL BE MY FIRST YEAR, SINCE I FOUND OUT SHE WAS MINE, THAT I CAN'T GET HER A CHRISTMAS PRESENT. MAKES YOU FEEL EVEN MORE LIKE A FAILURE. I WROTE 2 LETTERS TO PRESIDENT OBAMA & TO PRESIDENT-ELECT TRUMP. IN THEM I ASKED OBAMA TO END SLAVERY IN AMERICA. SLAVERY STILL EXISTS & IT'S LEGAL THANKS TO THE 13TH AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION. I DON'T HAVE IT IN FRONT OF ME AT THIS MOMENT BUT IF YOU GOOGLE IT, YOU CAN READ THAT SLAVERY IS AGAINST THE LAW UNLESS YOU ARE IN PRISON. NOT IN THOSE WORDS BUT IT'S WHAT IT MEANS. I ASKED OBAMA TO DO ONE THING FOR STATE PRISONERS BEFORE HE LEAVES OFFICE & THATS TO ELIMINATE SLAVERY. I ASKED PRESIDENT TRUMP TO DO THE SAME IF OBAMA FAILS TO DO IT. I BRIEFLY EXPLAINED TO TRUMP THAT IF HE ELIMINATED SLAVERY I US PRIONS, WE COULD BE PAID A HIGHER SALARY, THIS IN TURN WOULD ALLOW US TO PAY TAXES, WHICH WOULD HELP SUPPORT SOCIAL SECURITY, WE WOULD BE ABLE TO EARN MOENY FROM WORKING TO HELP OUR FAMILIES, TO SUPPORT OURSELVES IN HERE & NOT HAVE TO ASK OTHERS FOR HELP. THE PRISON SYSTEM COULD RE-OPEN THE FARM SYSTEM. EACH PRISON COULD HAVE IT'S OWN FARM FOR CATTLE, CHICKENS, IGS, THEY COULD GROW FRUITS & VEGETABLES YEAR ROUND. THIS WOULD SAVE TAXPAYERS ALOT OF MONEY IN THE LONG RUN BECAUSE PRISONS WOULD BE MORE SELF SUFFICIENT.
SECTION 1 OF THE 13TH AMENDMENT READS: NEITHER SLAVERY NOR INVOLUNTARY SERVITUDE, EXCEPT AS A PUNISHMENT FOR CRIME WHEREOF THE PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN DULY CONVICTED, SHALL EXIST WITHIN THE USA OR ANY PLACE SUBJECT TO THEIR JURISDICTION.
