Homeless Apartheid

Here are the open arms

with you right there

..stepping away

further behind

as it closes in tonight

Here are the open arms

though you are with

..no words to say

caught in the lines

of your over-rated pride

Here are the open arms

stretched out astride

..a beautiful day

more than divine

which is straying off your sight

Much with regrets and loses

and excused departures

the stones on the curb is weighed down by the lies

Wayward the hope sails

its adolescence staled

as it combs out the hopes and the will to survive

bedside on cardboxes

and blankets of patches

borrowed homes scribbled down in the sweet diary of life

god bless this homeless apartheid

Here are the open arms

reaching across

..showing you a way

lost are the blind

though your eyes are open wide

Here are the open arms

resting aside all

..these reasons astray

what you could find

if you took a step outside

Here are the open arms

there is no more

..of your yesterdays

look in your mind

you'll see the wrongs won't right
