Just a bad dream

Tears are dripping
from her face.
She's all alone
in that awful place.

No friends, no family,
no-one who cares.
She's all alone,
so lonely, so scared.

No visitors allowed,
just her and the guards.
But they don't care,
there's no regard.

Her fellow inmates,
they don't care,
without interest in her,
they leave her there.

Alone, in a corner,
without a single friend,
she sits there, thinking,
how everything went.

How she fell for the money
they offered to her.
She took it, not knowing,
the risks there were.

To smuggle the drugs,
abroad, overseas.
To Belgium, or Britain,
or Holland or Greece.

She tried it, they caught her,
and took her away.
She was send to prison
were she had to stay.

And now she's still there,
alone in the night.
They harassed her and hit her,
they started to fight

They were placed apart,
to blow off some steam.
While she stays hoping
it’s al a bad dream!
