Poverty
you are an ocean
so big!
and you are
drowning me
I am in
over my head
and I cannot breathe
my heart
is pounding
my lungs
are full of pain
Poverty
all you give me
is suffering
you take away
my dignity!
Poverty
you sweep me
under the rug
like I am
nothing but dirt
you don't feel
my suffering
so you don't care
how much I hurt!
