Take a look at me
What is it that you see?
I can see by the look on your face
that you don’t know what it is you see.
I would say that I'm nothing
but that isn’t true.
I can’t tell you what I am
but I know what I’m not.
My life it has purpose and structure
I’m not gunna throw it away
over some accident that’s my fault.
I can live with the consequences of my actions.
I can deal with the fact that I did what I did.
But you can’t see that can you?
All you can see is that I screwed
and now I need to be punished.
As if a month isn’t long enough
I gotta go a year and a half.
I would say that’s over kill
but it’s what the state threw at me.
When I come outta this
imma be stronger then ever.
You just wait and see
I’ll amaze you
Hell I may even shock you.

Very nicely written, with a good sense of prose and nuance.
