Without passion in our hearts, humanity will suffer

Especially, when temperatures inside, reach freezing

Instead, show empathy, there’s no need to be tougher

I’m pretty sure we will find that, a lot more pleasing

There are an infinite number of ways, oft filled with disdain

When, selfishly, one will devour a human spirit, and conceal it

While trying to strangle those around, by using rope or chain

To climb higher, above the rest, til they can, no longer, heal it

I am unseen, in this vast world I dwell

No one really notices I am here, as well

Walking around, with their heads in the air

Passersby never seeing, nor do they care

Making their way, to wherever they must

Leaving me here, with no hope, nor trust

That the human race will eventually awaken

Realizing, the path, so many have taken

Filled with self-doubts, a heart of defeat

No shelter from the cold, life on the street

No matter the weather, no matter the time

We remain unseen, a punishment, for no crime

We are not like cars, where colors are optional

Humans come in a variety, our palettes, diverse

We must make it our quest to be kind to another

Learn not how to argue, but rather, to converse

We can build ourselves a sanctuary, a place we can retreat

Even if it’s in an old garage, a means of paradise, on Earth

But, motivation keeps falling, we’re no longer so ambitious

Our will has dropped too low, we now suffer human dearth
