The Price

  • This is the price that I must pay for being the most hated, the most vile. Once again I am being forced from any semblance of normalcy. Yanked up for no better reason than the fact that I am a sex offender. On 7-30-13, I was told that I would be killed because I was a sex-offender. This “hit” was being put out by some prison gang. This is not something that I can fight, unless I am willing to kill or be killed. I am willing to fight if I must, but I don’t want to kill anyone or be killed. Is this to be the entirety of my life now? In your eyes do I deserve this? I have been on this unit for 10 years; I have felt fairly safe here until now. I don’t want to leave, but I don’t want to die or be forced to kill. It goes against everything that I am trying to become. I just want to live in peace and to have the chance to show that I am not the man I once was. Now I go somewhere else to start over again.

     

    My heart is heavy.

     

    The Unforgiven, Luke
