We see them every day but pretend it's not our business;
As long as we have good food and warm homes
We don't need to give a second glance at them.
They are 95% bi-polar and schizophrenic but that matters to no one.
We could go into the ways of treating them but that would be too much trouble.
So we take our cozy life and put on our arrogant airs
And pretend they are just like us and walk away,
While they look for a new home for tonight.

Thought provoking and sad
Sis, This is a thought provoking piece because its truth one because there is so much to be thankful about. Second sometimes blessings aren't counted for enough and the pity things seem to be focussed on more. When there are real problems out there and those worse off. With that though we are all as individuals different and need more of Gods love to give to each other. In so this goes to show to that its easy to love those who are happy or seem normal to those who seem different have emotional problems patience is limited or even a mentle illness. I know I need God to fill my heart more and more so ill never be to empty and will be filled to give that love to more. But this surely shows sis we are blessed. Love, Sis
