Lost Soul

I watched with wonder as he stood in the cold Nothing but a spring jacket a poor lost soul As people went by he asked for change He was ignored but still remained His hands were purple his cheeks bright red I will never forget the next thing he said I need some change so i can eat The last time i had something was almost a week The reply from the young man was get a job I am not giving you anything you useless slob Saddened by what i herd i walked over to the man I smiled and put a ten in his hand Here sir i said please buy yourself a meal And pay no attention to how others feel He smiled and said your so kind Turned and walked away leaving me his words to rhyme
