Pain

She calls out to the man on the street,

 

He can see she's been crying.

 

She's got blisters on the soles of her feet,

 

She can't walk but she's trying.

 

Oh Lord, is there nothing more anybody can do?

 

Oh Lord, there must be something you can say!

 

You can tell from the lines on her face,

 

You can see that she's been there.

 

Probably been moved on from every place,

 

'Cause she didn't fit in there

Powerful!..... Was this photo taken in the United States? If so, can you let us know so that it reminds everyone that this problem exists here. You would be surprised how quickly people forget that they pass these unfortunate people by day after day after day. Thanks.

Empathy alone doesn't help people in need. Thanks for the reminder that life isn't all kittens & pretty flowers. We may all be a little guilty of looking the other way and becoming insular. Having said that, it's up to our so-called leaders to put power & greed on a back burner & look after the folk they purport to serve.

thank you everyone.

this was taken in Manila. There are a lot of people just like her here. So sad really that the government seems to be ignoring them.
