Homeless
Forgetting my past,
The future comes so fast,
Making the day go away so slowly,
Wearing socks oh so holely,
Making friends what so fast,
Making my life last,
Waiting for the day to end,
Making money spend, spend, spend,
Being looked at oh so fast,
How did I ever last,
Sitting on the streets,
Having nothing at all,
And having no luck at a ball,
Getting nothing to eat,
Some of us getting beat,
Making less friends,
All the way to the end,
Having no home to live in,
And causing no sin,
Begging and pleading for food,
Barely making it in life,
And no children and wife,
Being alone and not so friendly,
Having no where to go,
Having nothing to show,
Finally help from the state,
Putting food on my plate,
Shelter finally happens,
And starting making friends,
Plus starting a new life.......
