Poverty but with a dream


Poverty but with a Dream . 

I have a dream to inspire other 

I have a dream to see no rats in the place Im living 

I have a dream 

to see no hate 

to see no evil 

to see no homelessness 

to see no hunger 

to see no discrimination 

But in reality 

there are evil lurking 

selling drugs and using the money to buy and create saddness and bitterness in people's life 

bribing and creating lies in forcing person into poverty 

into a place with no electricty , waters or foods 

How can I survive ?

How will I live 

How can I live to see 

my own sister and blood 

to force me into darkness and dead end ?

why sister 

why can you be so cruel 

so evil 

so cold 

why do you have to abondon me ?

I have a dream 

that I will no longer live in poverty 

that a shining knight will come to my rescue 

but no shinning knight will come in my aid 

because life is no fairy tales 

all prince will be stolen by vicious lying sister 

I will have no suitor 

but a mind of open 

willing to be educate 

to one day to inspire other 

to bring light 

I hope God will lead my way 

to a day of no pain but glory
