Visitation Day

The time is getting closer for me to be able to say, "I been waiting so long & it's finally visitation day!" I never knew a love where I would go behind a fence, to get frisked & searched because I'm visiting the "pen." Visiting the "Pen", it sounds like a place where you keep a pig..except in reality the pig is the mf who dresses you in chains, & then call you by a number instead if your mf'n name! Ain't it a shame? But you got my heart, so I'll come to visit you in jail...But in reality I'm coming to visit you in hell.... And yet the anticipation is driving me completely out of my mind, kuz we been waiting such a very long time, to see eachother face to face...even if it does have to be in that place. What am I gonna wear? Are the other n!ggaz gonna stare? What am I gonna say? Hell it's visitation day! I gotta drive such a very long way, but its a price I'm gonna have to pay....kuz my heart's behind that fence & it's dressed in chains..& not the kind that you buy in a jewelry store, but the kind that the pig shackles you in! When they close & lock the doors at the mf'n " Pen" Will I cry? Will I grin? Will I laugh? Will I pretend? Not to be sad kuz I can't take you home with me. Can't wait til the day that you're alone wit me. ..it'll be nobody else in the room but ME, & that's the way that it'll always be..& even after the day that they let you free, I'm never letting you get away from me again...kuz this is the LAST time YOU'RE visiting the mf'n "Pen."
