North and South
By Anjole Levaron
Pain and Love is where I come from
Boom Boom my heart starts racing
My sister asking what is that
then Silence after that
Seeing homeless asking for money for food
Looking back at the floor with
A sign
with nothing in my hands
To give them
On the south people starving
But
North people are having a feast
I am in my room crying on my Pillow
asking for help
I cry wishing I had the person to tuck me In at night
hoping I had a house not an apartment
Wishing and hoping I had Chanel
licking me in the morning
wagging her tail
These are my feelings
This is my life
