Homeless
You passed me bye today
No time, no change, no care
With shield in place
You looked past my face
And pretended I wasn’t there
You passed me bye today
So intent to avoid delay
Your life must be fine
And so once was mine
Pray to God
You will never be here
You passed me bye today
Because in your heart you say
Someone else here will care
But the truth is that’s rare
Soon I’ll die
And be out of your way
