Empty bellies
Freezing limbs
Sleeping on the sidewalks
Or park bench
No blankets or pillow to keep you warm
A cardboard box as your shelter
Feeling safe is not an option
Fear for your life on the

streets alone
No one to protect you or feel at home

This is my life
Iā€™m not ashamed to say
But could you stop and just pray
Pray for my safety and that I will find shelter and food
But most of all, for me, to just be happy and good...
For all the homeless people in our world. Pray they will soon find peace and happiness
