Homeless

Why me? Living on the street,
Looking like a tramp
with nothing to eat.

I've no father, no mother,
I'm all alone,
no sister, no brother to call my own.

I pray every night,
For someone to come,
To come along and be my mum.

Does anyone care?
No they just walk past,
Do you think it's fair ?

I believe someday,
I'll be taken away,
By someone who calls herself my mum.
