Are you lost and Afraid <br />No Where to go, <br />Living on the streets <br />Hoping no one will know. <br />Alone and forgotten by <br />Family and friends <br />Hoping to find comfort, <br />Wanting the pain to end. <br /> <br />You say you are homeless <br />But is that really true? <br />There are strangers to care <br />And ones that’ll listen to you. <br />A home isn’t a house, apartment <br />Or where you live, <br />It’s where you are wanted- <br />People wanting to give. <br /> <br />Friendship, companionship, <br />Kind words, food to eat. <br />Acceptance, caring, a warm place to sleep. <br />People that give unselfishly, <br />People really wanting to know, <br />You, your problems and helping you to grow. <br /> <br />You say you are homeless, <br />No where to go. <br />Home is where the heart is, <br />People to get to know. <br />Everyone has problems, yours might not <br />Be so great. Listen with your heart, <br />Before it’s too late.<br /><br />Sandra Finch<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-say-you-are-homeless/
