~Broken and poor~

I have no money,
I have no food.
I have nobody,
My health is never good.

I have no home,
I sleep where I lay.
I have no job.
I get no pay.

There are no shoes on my feet.
I have tattered clothes on my back.
I never get to go anywhere.
I do not know how to act.

I can not wash.
I have no soap.
People make fun of me.
I am not a joke.

I have sometimes eat scraps,
from the trash can.
And done things for money.,
you will never understand.

I am poor.
I don't ask for your help.
I am used to this life.
I am all by myself.
