No Help For An Orphan Like Child

Can you show support to me
Whether I'm your child or not? 
If I say I was hungry would you throw 
A burger at me?
I'm truly coming home from jail.
Looking for away to prevail
Hard times got me like 
What I'm going to do now? 
Yes I need help
Yes I'm struggling 
Yes i'm less fortunate
Trying not to go back to hustling
But what are my options 
When you have orphan like parents!
I pray I get the help I need
Sometimes I get discouraged
Life is life 
I pray I get it right!
Never know when its your time to go 
I wanna go out like dynamite..
I'm living this life 
The type of life I'm living, 
Cause I feel Like I don't have 
Many options 
If I say I need love why not put 
Up for Adoption?
I'm coming for u....
Because my heart holds a lot of pain
They say what don't kill you 
Make u Stronger 
Well i must have a lot to gain!!!!!   
I'm an Orphan Like Child !!!

Dante, an enclosed rhyme it is not, but it Rhymes for sure. To me it feels and sounds like something you should perform on stage, it needs to be spoken aloud, that sort of poetry it is. And it is good! Welcome to PoetrySoup.
