In the shadows
Of society
There are souls
Most don't
Care to know about
Lost and hollow
Reaching out
For a hand to hold
Reaching out
For that one friend
To make this cold world
Seem less cold
Make their lives
Not only bearable
But also worth living
These are the people
We need to be seeing
We need to be helping
Those on the street
Who go through
Life starving
Those who are bullied
Who just once
Would like to know
What it is to be
Truly seen
And actually accepted
But no they live
In the shadows
Still reaching out
For that hand to hold
And I don't think
That is right
Do you?
