DAY 1
"Hunger, madness, deprivation
No regrets!
Die together we will
rather than live apart!"
SLAVES OF PASSION
The prison walls
the warders whip
the judge’s hammer,
hit us in the brain!
Our pasts- closed chapter;
chains around us
chastisement surround us
the proverb hit us hard!
Our choice we made
damned the consequences
ignored them totally
we are victims of passion.
Hunger, madness, deprivation
No regrets!
Die together we will
rather than live apart!
We remain entwined
glued to each other,
we are prisoners
yes, slaves of passion.
