Streetwise

A lonely boy stands
and stares at what he does not have
a house with a family
a bed he does not have
his world from the outside
is harder than we know
he has nothing
and little do we know
we look at him differant
we just pass him by
but never do we stop to look
to look into his eyes
fear is what stops us
we're scared of what we'll see
but no one ever realises
hes no differant from you or me
this boy is a person
he has feelings too
but he has no one to show
what is really true
so dont think you've got problems
and nothing to live for
because there are many kids
lying on our city floors.
