Why

Earlier, I heard a homeless man dropping some bitter truth

I felt the need to write this down, to pass it on to you

He was talking about how many these days are so selfish

they might see you bleeding & pass you right by

Not caring at all if you live or die

I wish I could say that what he said was a lie

but it isn’t, and when I see some people act

like that, all I can do is wonder why,

It’s enough to make anyone

break down & cry

If they feel anything inside
