No One and No One
Look at me for I am here
The lonely life they tried to disappear
The broken person with his broken mind
I live amongst you but you are all blind
Touch my hand and feel my skin
I feel like you feel but for me no one feels from within
I am skin and bone in physical space
Yet my presence is lost in view like I have no face
I walk the street alone, no one bothers with me
I see you enjoying living a life with a family
You catch a glimpse of me in a dark sillohette
Just for a second I exist but then you forget
I can't live like you, I can't love like you
For love forsook my life the day I was born
They broke my bones; I never had a home
They left me to feed on scraps and filth
They beat me when I cried or asked for help
Please look at me for I am here
The scars on my body will never disappear
The war in my mind of life and death
The whispered words I only talk to myself
Are just wasted breath
Look at me for here I am
On my knees begging for anything
Why walk past me? Why help me feed?
For to you who has everything
I am no one and no one is me
