when I walk into school
I do not feel that cool
my thoughts stay in my mind
I wish I had lots of money
I wish I did not struggle
I wish I had time
I wish I had a dime
or penny
I wish I could read what I can't write
I wish I could wake up
and not cry that my life is the same
I wish my mom did not have to go through every surgery
I wish my sister was not in jail
I wish I had money for the bail
but I am nothing
I have nothing
when people look at me they see nothing
when I think there is nothing I'm my mind
I can't think no more
I wish I could help myself
I wish I could help
the homeless
the ones who have no house
the ones who have no cause to live
the ones who have no right to be here
I wish I could help
I wish I could help you
I wish
but will they ever come true
