Life behind these walls ain't no cakewalk. It's a world of muted concrete and metal, where time crawls by at the pace of a turtle. The days fuse together, marked only by the clang of doors and harsh voices officials.
All day is a struggle to cope, to find purpose in a place where freedom seems like a dreamy memory. The air is thick with dread, and the shadows hold lies.
Still, even amidst these brutal conditions, there's a unyielding spirit which. A sense of community, forged in the crucible of shared hardship, and a hidden desire for change.

Fences of Regret
Regret can sometimes manifest itself physically as walls we build around ourselves. These walls are not made of brick and mortar, but rather of past hurts. They keep us trapped in the past.
We may erect these walls as a coping strategy. But over time, they can become suffocating, preventing us from moving on. Breaking down these walls of regret is a challenging process, but it is also essential for growth.
Existence Within

Yet, amidst the bustle, there's also a feeling of prison community. Strangers often wave hello in passing, and local shops foster a sense of connectedness. Ultimately, life inside can be a truly fascinating experience.
A concrete jungle

The paved pathways are crowded with a sea of faces, each rushing toward an unseen destination. The air itself vibrates with the hustle of millions living, working, and dreaming within this glass cage. Even the noises are a cacophony—a chorus of honking horns mixed with the distant chatter of everyday life.
Belief on Lockdown
The world perceives different these days. Walls which once divided us now seem to enfold us, and the familiar rhythms of life have been moved into a disjointed pattern. Yet, even in this uncertain landscape, there persists a flicker. A tiny ember of aspiration that refuses to be quenched.

It reminds us that even in lockdown, our humanity endure.
