Children

Children living in the streets
Cardboard boxes
Under bridges
Children
Abused
Hurting
Scared

They have no one they can trust
Everyone they had trusted
Had let them down
Some emotionally
Some physically
Some in ways I Will not speak

These children are runaways
Running from the evil that haunts them
Running from the society
 That has done them wrong

Some children
Instead of running
Choose to take their own lives
For they feel
That no matter what the do
They are trapped
Death is the only escape

Children living in the streets
Cardboard boxes
Under bridges
Chicken
Abused
Hurting
Scared
