I wish

There is a man on the side of the street
He is holding a sign asking for money
I look around and watch all the people just pass on by
Not giving the man a second glace, not caring
Cant they see he is freezing
That he is hungry
They do but they do nothing

People are to busy to help others
To caught up in their own lives to help
They don’t know how it is to be forgotten
Or to be left behind

It was not always like this
People used to care used to help
They used to make sure everyone had food and shelter
But with time people change

I wish that we can just stop and think
About the forgotten and the helpless
I wish we could care for someone who needs it

Yet we just walk on by
Not giving a second glace
People just don’t want to care
