Poverty

poverty stricken people living on the streets

All my life I’ve lived

In poverty

I toiled and suffered

And battled it daily

Poverty is a demon that deprives you

Of everything you have

Poverty, poverty

I was born in poverty

I lived in poverty

I have felt the shame and disgrace of poverty

I have felt the brutal assault of reality

When it comes to poverty

My very life is the perfect example of poverty

I yearned for riches

But none would come

My way

All I see is just poverty

Rearing its ugly head everyday

Poverty, oh my lord

Why poverty

Why me? I often asked

Only wishing that this

State of life

Would soon pass

But it forever lingers

With no intent of relief

This state of poverty

Is causing me too much grief

Poverty, poverty

Need I say more?

Well it seems I will

Have to remain poor

What If Life Was A Dream

I never wanted to open

My eyes

To this cruel world of reality

Because every time

I’m awake

I felt like something has been stolen from me

Going to sleep each night

Is like going on an adventure

Like surfing the

World Wide Web

And nothing is censored

What if life was a dream?

What if you could live

That one blissful moment forever

What if the happiness

And the joy

Never cease to exist

Then you could live your life

Just as if you were sleeping

Last night
