Another day has come.

I was soo close to giving up my life this time.
I can’t bear this pain in Isolation anymore.
But come to think of it.....
Who really cares if I die or live?



My journey does not have a starting point

Not to talk about when and where it ends.
Even though I sleep at the top I always rise at the bottom.

How are you?
And what will you eat?
Are questions that I’ve heard in a long while?
No one cares to ask.
I despise school children just as they despise me.
Because we live on the opposite sides of life.
I watch them in envy as they watch me in pity.

I never wished for this life,

But as it stands, no one can make my life better in anyway;
Because I stand with the joy of a street child on my forehead.
I do change my clothes twice as you do
Just that yours is twice a day whiles mine is twice a year.



Never look down on me

Eventhough I think you are better than me economically.
I don’t cry anymore
Because nobody even really cares
Apart from God.
Had it not been for him
I would have been dead by now.

This is my plea.

But i am not seeking for parity
Because even if I do i can never live up to it.
All I seek is our attention and care.

Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!
I dont even know what to say. You wowed me
You post should trend

Thanks brother.
We will definitely get to the trending pages one of these days

Most street children do not get the opportunity of going to school. Yes steem can be for the poor, but the educated poor I guess. We can help the poor (children mostly) by giving them gifts but can they depend on gifts for the rest of their life?
We always see steem powered charity events. That's good work but let us support their education if we can, because education is the most effective way steem can be for the poor. They will blog and better their lives.

Nice poem

Wow this is amazing,i haven't read a beautiful poem like this in a long time ,really nice and touching,and yes if nobody cares,God our Father always care.

God is always there for us, no matter the circumstances

And i don't understand what people mean by for the poor,STEEMIT is for everyone that has interest and want to upgrade and learn new things .

A very big question you have asked brother "is steem for the poor". Thanks for such a wonderful poem
