Want To Live,But No Bread For Me

Iam Hungry...Thirst is uncontrollable
It nearly kills me,Cries a poor one..
A dirty wasteland that is his home
but its a heaven for him,His mom
sick in the bed,He is handicapped.
Worms are eating his skinny body,NOBODY to help him!
He is helpless...he want to live 
But waiting for death,Help him god i pray to you....

Your poem is so evocative of sadness and suffering. I hope those kinds of prayers are sincerely listened to and answered! p.s. why haven't you been posting poems?
