The flickering lights paint long shadows on the forms huddled around sticky tables. Every gulp of strong liquor is a chug at forgetting, a fleeting escape from the truth that shadows them outside these dim walls. They come here to forget their woes, seeking solace in the murmurs of strangers who feel it too. But the drinks can only hide the despair for so long. The dreams, they're broken, scattered like cigarette butts on the floor. And tomorrow? Tomorrow, the routine starts all over again.
Solid Barriers, Unbreakable Spirit
Behind these robust walls of granite, lies a spirit forged in adamant determination. Every slab represents a hurdle overcome, every crack a testament to the strength that defines this place.

They may try to overcome us, but we stand resilient. For in these walls, we find not just sanctuary, but also a manifestation of our own fundamental strength. We are the fortifications that withstand the storms, and the indomitable force that propels us forward
Existence Inside the Fence
The echo of metal on metal is a constant reminder. Every step across this concrete floor brings a shiver down your spine. There's a weight to the air, a palpable unease that hangs like a shroud. The glances you encounter are etched with experiences, some hardened by pain, others shining with an unyielding belief.
Days here can stretch on, marked only by the rations and the shifting light through the tiny openings. Darkness brings a different kind of silence, broken only by the shifting of beds and the occasional cough. There's a vulnerability hidden beneath the prison tough exterior, a yearning for connection. Even here, behind these walls, life persists.
