Personal Narrative: Life In A Prison

Decent Essays
When does the sun set? I have no idea. There is no little clue to tell when the sun sets because I’m here in a little prison cell surrounded by walls. I only have four walls around me and one little door. It would have nice if I d have not done that. I have no hope that I will be able to get out from here. Being in the prison the reason was I robbed a bank because hunger of money got me here in the prison. It happened on 02/10/1990. I'm 65 now and I have 26 years sentence leftover. I think I won't be alive by that time.

    The pain began slowly, pricking me with its sharp needles only while doing barre in ballet once a week. I ignored it, believing it to be normal, common discomfort that would soon go away, typical thoughts of a dancer whose entire sport is centered around “good pain”. Six months later, it had escalated to the degree that every step I took felt like an arrow to my knee. Dancing had become impossible, and it was determined that I should be taken to the orthopedist. The bland, brown and beige lobby became extraordinarily familiar as I waited two hours to be examined.…

    My experiences over the last six years living in NYC have shaped me into the approachable and compassionate person I am today. I have been immersed in a melting pot with many different culturally and economically diverse populations. These unique experiences have broadened my horizons and allowed me to gain valuable communication skills and the ability to connect with people from all walks of life. I searched out opportunities to give back and help the people in my community both in volunteering in hospitals, educating high school students, and interning in private practices. I even traveled with the organization Medlife, setting up a medical clinic to provide basic medical care and education to people in the poor and underserved communities surrounding Lima, Peru.…

    Throughout the Fall 2016 semester, I visited several different courts uptown for my American Criminal Courts class. When I saw this assignment on the syllabus, I was very eager to complete it because I wanted expand my knowledge in the court system and how it works.

    Now, it was only a simple matter of getting out of the prison and using the laptop to get the school reported for a whole host of legal issues.

But in my time in the Asylum, I learned to ignore them as I walked to interview a patient. I remember when their screams used to unsettle me when I first came to work here in Germany. In America, everything was so white and sterile, but here, everything is so dreary and monotonous. But today I was unnerved for a different reason.…

I am in chains, lying on the hard ground of a large boat, stuffed next to other slaves. The atmosphere is so thick and stuffy, it is nearly impossible to breathe, much less without extraneous effort and wheezing. The stench is unbearable.…
