It’s waiting on letters while your doing time, but your family won’t write or send a dime.
It’s waiting on visits that never take place from friends and loved ones who forget your face.
It’s hearing all their promises that go straight to your head, but when push comes to shove they leave you for dead.
It’s calling and hearing blocks on the phone, but you maintain because life goes on.
That’s how it is when your doing time when your out of sight, your out of mind.
