Poverty
Poverty
 Loneliness,
 Sadness,
 Coldness
 These feelings all come to play when you are finally left on the cold streets
 Forced to fend for yourself
 Without a home to live in,
 Or a bed to lay in
 Or even a tree house for little children to play in
 Sleepless nights
 Blinded from all the fights
 With nothing to lie awake with you but the eerie streetlights
 But that’s not the worst
 Of this living nightmare
 You are given disgusted looks by walkers, hideous stares
 You’re a freak, an outcast, a despicable lower less lifeform
 Left with nothing but the clothes on his back,
 And a small pint of hope, dignity, and pride
 Deserted, abandoned, forgotten
 You’re a dust in the wind
 A dying element without a purpose, left behind to rot
 But, that is the price we pay, when living in this cruel, unforgiving world
