Beggars
Have you ever seen those souls brokenhearted clothes in rags enfold in human shells just as a poor
Sitting by the roadside or wandering around begging for morsels much more than for compassion and love
Extremely looking into their eyes you'll noticed the pain and torture they've been going through which will melt your heart for pity
All they are hoping is for us to hear their souls crying and be so kind but that's not exactly what they get from us
Instead we cloak a solution to their unspoken problems by giving them the little we have
But we turn them down which resulted them being shattered inside
Oh! this souls
On the cause of stretching their feeble hands to beg a sign of hardship instantly showed-up
They remain homeless and hopeless just roaming around the street barefooted
They're just too familiar with hunger and thirst being their companions
They're beggars
