As I sit here all alone, the rain is pouring down on me
My bones are chilled from all the winds, blowing around me
I have no one, my only friend, is the doorway that I sit
The cardboard pieces placed upon my shoulders, bring shelter that I need
My feet are bare, my shoes are worn, my socks they do not protect
As I walk for miles for a place, I need to find to rest
As I sit alone, the passers by, they do not look my way
As I sit alone, my head hung low, a pain I feel again
Why can't people see, this way of life was given to me to live
By a system that has let me down, they should have cared for me
No one has even missed me, since the day I chose to run
I might as well be invisible, to the people of my world
I have a little box, that says please help me
But when I look inside it, few pennies do face me
My trembling hands from the cold, count what is there inside
It is enough to get a tea, but my stomach will be empty tonight
Another night I will face, laying upon ground so very hard
I cover myself with what I have, a cardboard for me to hide
I'll try to sleep, but it's not the same as a warm bed I should be in
I have to keep one eye open, in case danger comes to me
When I wake, my eyes are dark, my pale face on show
I'm wondering where I'll go today, to even have a wash
I pack my things and do head off, as the owner has arrived
He shouts at me, for sleeping in his doorway overnight
I scramble fast, it's all a blur, which road will I now take
To find a place to sit down and start the fight again
Love, light and healing energies
