Poetry

---

Nobody sees me when I cry tonight.
Nobody cares if I starve tonight.
Nobody hears the painful growls of hunger
Nobody takes my burden.
Someone would stop and stare.
Nobody will stop and care.
Someone thought I tried to hurt them.
Nobody knows how I feel

Nobody has any worries.
Nobody ever cries aloud
Nobody thinks of my shame.
Nobody has no other name.
Someone will not look me in the eye
Nobody will never leave me alone
Someone will tell me to get ahead.
Nobody knows losing a winners game.

Nobody knows the name of the Saviour
Nobody has felt this way before.
Nobody has no place to lay his head.
Nobody can help this pain.
Someone, Oh I wish someone will tell me.
Nobody tells me about the streets of gold.
Someone will you ever really listen.
Nobody gives me an answer to the eternal question.

Nobody walks the pavement
Nobody tells me that I should find help
Nobody is there when I died in the streets
Nobody can do anything.
Someone will put me in the ground.
Nobody takes me to my new home.
Someone forgot everything about me
Nobody takes my hand in Paradise

William
R. King
