In the shadows, unseen, they reside, The homeless souls, their dreams denied, Aching hearts on streets so cold, In search of hope, their stories untold.
Amidst the city lights, they roam, Each faces a story, a journey unknown, Once cherished dreams, now lost in time, Invisible souls, left to the mercy of the chime.
The government’s promise, a beacon of light, To aid the needy, to make their plight right, But bureaucracy’s web, a tangled embrace, Leaves many abandoned in this endless race.
The shelters overflow, yet more in need, A bureaucratic maze, where hope takes the lead, A system flawed, unable to cope, Leaving lives shattered, without a glimmer of hope.
Is it not the duty of a nation so grand, To extend a hand, to uplift, to understand? The homeless cry out, and their voices unite, But answers remain elusive, lost in the night.
In the cold and rain, they seek a reprieve, A moment of warmth, a reason to believe, Yet amidst the promises, they struggle to stand, For the weight of neglect is too heavy to withstand.
Oh, government, hear their plea, Unlock the gates, set them free, Break down the walls of despair and shame, To kindle a flame, and end this game.
Let compassion guide the way, To build a home where all can stay, For a nation’s strength lies not in wealth alone, But in the care and love it has shown.
So, let us unite, hand in hand, To heal the wounds across the land, mend the broken, bridge the divide, And restore dignity, for all souls to reside.
