Why me! I watched the sun go down anxious and with a frown I live my life on the street doors and alleyways are where I sleep I watch the nocturnals run about I am scared I become their prey always awake salty tears I weep I feel abandoned and ask, why me I am lonely forgotten too no family or friends, just me I will arise to face the day In this life there is no other way. ©andrewpenman2011

Why me
Why me! I watched the sun go down anxious and with a frown I live my life on the street doors and alleyways are where I sleep I watch the nocturnals run about I am scared I become their prey always awake salty tears I weep I feel abandoned and ask, why me I am lonely forgotten too no family or friends, just me I will arise to face the day In this life there is no other way. ©andrewpenman2011
I penned this within minutes of viewing an artists friend painting called Alone and forgotten about living on the streets
