Brain training. :It's your first day on Death row. Plan the next ten years of your life in this eight by ten cell, as you wait for your day to come:

The echo's of clanging bars and screaming men are coursing  through my mind, each passing second is met with anguish, regret and desperate thoughts but it doesn't sway me too much, It's my first day here but I'm already used to the sounds of wailing and banging, it was scary at first but I've forgotten what silence sounds like, the sound of ducks in a pond, the buzzing of bees, Birds in a tree, I wish I could hear them again.


My cell is hard to move around in and it hurts to move most of the time, I don't know how long I'll be here for, there are stories of people being on death row for many years or maybe a couple weeks, although my life could be extinguished at any time, I can reflect on my past choices, the pain I've caused others, the times I loved others and the highlights of my life. I'll miss them but they're gone now and it's all my fault, I deserve to be here forever, I can't fathom the feelings of the people who's lives I've destroyed because of what I've done. I could have said it was self defence because they tried to rob my home but my actions weren't justified to the extent that I took them.
They took wanted my valuables, so I took their lives but I didn't just take their lives, I robbed them of their lives just as they had robbed me, they didn't see me hiding in the darkness before I lunged towards them with my Knife. I didn't think it was wrong at the time but as every second passes with other prisoners screaming, the realisation hits me like a train, I'm a criminal and I deserve what's coming to me. Whenever my time comes, I can rest easy knowing that the families that I've hurt can be happy that I'm getting what I deserve.
