Wonder why&;#063;

I walk around and wonder how
The world became as it is now
The people living on the street
Are dreaming about what I will eat
When I walk by
Careful not to catch their eye.
I'm ashamed, afraid of them
I wonder why?

I look up to the moon and think
Am I, in fact, the weakest link?
It's not that I don't care you see
I'm just so tired and far too busy
To stop and try
To help them as I hurry by
I'm not alone, afraid of them
I wonder why?
