All I Needed Poem by Kathryn Busch

I watch the people get into their cars
Begging one after another
Telling them what will happen
But no one will help
The night will freeze
Will I survive
They are scared of me
Though I cannot blame them
My clothes are tore
My hair is mudded
I am not clean in any means
But still
I am human
Just someone that needs help
Like everyone else
Maybe I do not have money
Or a warm house
But I look the same inside
So Why
Why would no one help me?
I will tell you why
They cannot take time
To help someone
That might not live another night
But all I need is a ride
