It's Not Fair

it's not fair
a child out here alone
it's not fair 
wondering alone in the dark
everyone else tucked safely in bed
it's not fair
the sun rises again and all is the same
it's not fair
no one seeing me out here so  small and alone
it's not fair

I have said for many years that the homeless problem in america is one that needs to be addressed. We seem to turn our heads and focus on other things when we could help those less fortunate than us. Excellent poem.
