MY HANDS, MY PARENTS.A Poem by Raheem Lyttle KiyagaThrough writing this poem, is a way that I'm calling for your hands, Lets outstrech our hands to the street children, We're the one to save them, We all want love & we're one love, We're one blood.
Days going harder everytime,
And very gruesome, Nightmares whenever I Lay bold head down On the dusty cold floor, I call home, and bed, Rainy days and cold nights, Nowhere to run to, Busy arcades, and flooded drainages, With water and sewages, The would have been the only place, Why guards keep at night ? And suppress me to Sleep in my bed, verander! My hands, my parents bought it from, Gabbage arcade next to diseases street, My hands, my parents. Getting off these streets is my dreams, Having a family and also Getting my siblings off here, I work with begging company, My boss Mr Travellers Pedestrians, And his stuff They don't pay me, I'm not paid, All they say is that, "I've grown up, and I know it, I wanna get off here, Get a job and get a house, Nobody I know and, Where to start from....... My hands, My parents. © 2012 Raheem Lyttle KiyagaAuthor's Note
