Homeless Man

The glasses and beard they give him away. He pushes a cart
to start out his day. His stomach it growls as he looks for food
to start out his day. He found in a dumpster a slice of bread
and stale meat along with a brownie to save as a treat.
His day starts to fade from light into dark the rains pouring
down with no shelter in sight. I once had a home two children
and Wife. It all ended one day when a drunk driver ended
there lives. They call me the homeless as everyone can see
i choose to be homeless when my Family was taken from me.
So if you drive by and happen to see a homeless man
just like me. Dont be afraid to talk to me because you
could be homeless just like me.
