Roll your window up
When you see me near
If I approached
You wouldn't even meet my stare
But glance at the words on my sign
Thoughts about me already declared
I'm someone you don't want here
The **** of this earth
While you inside all warm
I'm fighting to stay dry
You don't know me
But hate the way I'm living
You think of me just a homeless man
Living my life off begging
You don't know what I've been through
How would you feel if you saw me as your reflection
Sleeping under freeways
While you throw unwanted food away
My clothes ripped and torn
While the things in your closet probably never been worn
A homeless man
But I'm just disgusting to you
I'm sorry but put yourself in my shoes I'm more then just a begging man
This is not the way I chose to live
This is just an interpretation... I think it's sad how we judge the homeless.. Have you ever talked to one I have and you'll be surprised how much happier they are then most of us.. How easy it is to turn away from someone in need.. But how easy it is to ask others.. We all live on the same earth why wouldn't you want to help someone who was born just like you. We don't know there story but we can make up one so quick who cares what they do with the money.. If it was you how would u feel
