Does Anyone Care
Does anyone really care about the homeless on the streets?
Does anyone really care about the drug addicts that are looking for peace?
Does anyone really care about the abuse that children endure?
Does anyone really care about the chance for medical breaks for a cure?
Some of the homeless has no choice.
No one would ever know this though, because society thinks they have no voice.
People think they are diseased and filthy.
But is it because secretly society feels guilty?
Drug addicts the first time they pick up was their choice.
But after that, they can get addicted and their life it destroys.
Society though can talk about resources, but actions really speak words.
I think this is where society needs to educate and decide to learn.
Children are mentally, physically, verbally, and sexually abused every day.
But society makes it hard for them to speak and that’s why in their homes they stay.
The truth hurts to know that these children will self-harm.
But everyone wants to cover it up with happiness and charm.
The medical field is secretly all about the money.
Have you noticed how high the bills are in this country?
To have a cure would put them out of jobs.
And in my bones that’s the mind set people have and it throbs.
So really does anyone really care about the homeless on the streets?
So really does anyone really care about the drug addicts that are looking for peace?
So really does anyone really care about the abuse that children endure?
So really does anyone really care about the chance for medical breaks for a cure?
