Homelessness

Lying in the cold, dark night

Breath's fog fills the air

Fingers become numb from the chills

People walk by throwing trash

Spitting and hollering

I'm cold, I'm lost, I'm dying.

Haven't found a cure for this

I can't believe this world exists

I shout for help as I find the way

Homelessness

I close my eyes and try to sleep

I'm kept awake by anger's weak

Don't take me now

I'm not ready to go

Give me yet another chance

Haven't found a cure for this

I can't believe this world exists

I shout for help as I find a way

Homelessness

My mind is numb

My head is empty

My heart falls apart

I feel so weak

I'm losing touch

With who I was before

I can't believe it's come to this

Haven't found a cure for this

I can't believe this world exists

I shout for help as I find the way

Homelessness

Even in the first lines, the situation become heartbreaking and vivid. This is the kind of poem that could change the world if shown to the right people. I can't even describe it, but just know that you have created a masterpiece that I will not be able to forget.
