Who Am I

Who am I?
I walk a countless amount of miles
I don’t receive many smiles
I chase every single meal
I avoid those who steal
I share a room with many
I belong to group of plenty
I am treated poorly by most
I never have enough to boast
I wish life wasn’t so tough
I hope to get myself out of the rough
I dream of a happier place
I am scattered in all types of race
I look in the mirror and wonder
If I want to be on top instead of under
I want to know how I got here
I look for those who will share
I search every day for a way out
I am a Homeless individual did you figure that out
