Entering the Prison Walls
Entering the Prison Walls
What happens after entering the prison walls.

I was only 25-years old when I was sentenced to 151 years in prison. I remember the day I was sentenced as if it were just yesterday. I had been found guilty of murder; the jury had no mercy for me. I had taken a life, and now I had to pay the ultimate price.

My lawyer had done nothing but plead guilty for my case, but it was all just a game of cat and mouse. I had been caught due to a snitch, and there I was still denying my guilt. The judge had no choice but to sentence me to the maximum punishment. I was to spend the rest of my life in prison.

I remember the day I entered prison as if it was yesterday. It was one of the most terrifying experiences of my life. My heart was pounding in my chest as I approached the prison walls. I had never been in a prison before, and I was scared of what I would encounter inside. The walls seemed to stretch up into the sky, and I felt a chill run down my spine as I read the warning signs posted around them. The words "No Trespassing" were written in bold letters, and I knew that if I were to enter the prison walls, it would be at my own risk.

I took a deep breath and stepped forward, taking one hesitant step after another until I was standing right in front of the entrance. It felt like an eternity had passed as I stood there looking up at the imposing structure before me. There were no windows or doors visible from where I stood, and the only sound that could be heard was the distant barking of dogs from within.

I put one foot forward and then stopped myself, wondering if this was really such a good idea. After all, what exactly was awaiting me on the other side? But then again, if I wanted to get to the bottom of whatever mysteries were lurking within this place, then this was something that I needed to do. Taking another deep breath, I stepped through the entrance and into the darkness beyond.

The moment my feet crossed over the threshold into what lay ahead of me, an oppressive wave of dread washed over me like a wave crashing against rocks on shoreline. The air was heavy with tension and anticipation as my eyes tried desperately to adjust to the darkness around me. It took several moments for me to make out any details in my surroundings, but eventually my vision cleared enough for me to see that there were several prisoners milling about in small groups throughout the corridor in front of me.

A hushed silence descended upon us all with each new prisoner that entered through those gates behind me; no one dared speak above a whisper for fear of incurring anyone's wrath or worse yet; getting themselves thrown into solitary confinement for some unknown infraction or offense they may have committed while inside these walls.

The feeling of being watched seemed to linger everywhere too; each inmate kept their gaze locked on their feet as they walked down corridors filled with graffiti-covered walls and barred windows which served as constant reminders that none of us here were ever truly free once we'd crossed over those prison gates behind us.

Each step brought with it new smells--the thick stench of sweat mixed with urine among other things--and new sounds--the clanging of metal bars against concrete walls echoing through seemingly endless hallways filled with long stretches of nothingness punctuated only by silent rooms occasionally lined with guards whose sole job seemed to be just watching us walk by without ever saying a single word or making any contact whatsoever..

My heart raced faster than ever before as trepidation coursed through every inch of my being; this place reeked not only physically but also mentally—it felt like it could break anyone who stayed here for too long under its oppressive regime . . . Now more than ever did I understand why people kept their distance from these prison walls; entering here meant surrendering your sense freedom which would forever more be replaced by fear coursing through your veins every time you heard one wrong sound within these cold gray walls.. This truly was hell on earth…
