Pauper

Standing in the dark

Shiver in the cold night air

Roaming the empty street

The only light shone

Were from near by houses

Inside portrayed a family

Food on the table

The cheerfulness in their faces

A warm and loving family

One I wish I had

Lost and alone

How I wished I had someone

To make me laugh

Brighten my days

Most of all keep me company

Everyday hoping

For kindness from passerby

Giving me pennies

For a day of survival

The days get colder

I bundle in the corner

Trying to keep warm

But to no avail

I shiver from head to toe

Sitting in the dark corner

As I stare to the moon

Tears fill my eyes

I wish for this pain and loneliness

To go all away

My vision was blurred

From my tear fill eyes

The bitter cold winter

Made my mind drift

I tried to focus

But I see the light beginning to fade

I feel light as

All the surfing

Had come to an end...
