american me

by vega - Leo

starvin child looks sad on tv
2am and someone askin for donations
look deep inside the tiered childs eye
he tells me...
dont feel sorry for me
u dont even know me
its just my way 
to deal with and attempt to overcome problems and difficulties
i have to forget
i have to forgive 
american me.

one love...

Reason for writing:

    tryin to justify my apathy for these situations.
tryin to justify my guilt for not being in their situation.
