The glowing lights cast long shadows on the forms huddled around greasy tables. Every swig of strong liquor is a chug at forgetting, a fleeting escape from the pain that shadows them outside these dim walls. They come here to numb the ache, seeking comfort in the murmurs of strangers who get it. But the drinks can only cover the despair for so long. The dreams, they're broken, scattered like cigarette butts on the floor. And tomorrow? Tomorrow, the struggle starts all over again.
Solid Barriers, Unbreakable Spirit

They may try to break us, but we stand firm. For in these walls, we find not just protection, but also a reflection of our own inner strength. We are the walls that survive the storms, and the iron will that carries us onward
Days Within the Bars
The echo of metal on metal is a constant melody. Every stride across this cold floor casts a shiver down your spine. There's a thickness to the air, a palpable unease that hangs like a shroud. The eyes you encounter are etched with secrets, some hardened by loss, others masked with an unyielding hope.
Days here can drag on, marked only by the food and the shifting light through the tiny windows. Nighttime brings a different kind of silence, broken only by the shifting of cots and the occasional whisper. There's a vulnerability hidden beneath the tough exterior, a yearning for understanding. Even here, behind these walls, life persists.
