Sign

I sit here on lonely Ave and broken heart street. I fail on hard times. Not looking for spare change. Don’t need clothes. I’m a little bang up & thrashed but it’s only due to time. People gaze but don’t really see me. They see the sign but don’t interpret it. Day behind day I sit here and wait for a person to respond but my calls are the same as a phone that rings on silent. Years have passed and still nothing fresh or new. I ask this couple that passes by if they have any luck to spare. But I’m deliberately over looked. Well that was better than being spit on like last week. I’ve investigate my whole heart but I didn’t uncover any in there. But I’m truthfully on my last. Wish some1 would notice me. Excuse me miss, she smile and tells she can’t help me. I smile back because she brightens up the day for me. I tell her thanks. She turns and asks why? I answer, that was the best gift I’ve received in a long time. She had a bamboozled look on her face but she understood and told me she wished me the best. I smile and thanked her for her blessings. I then got a flash back of the day when I lost it. The very moment when I took it for granted, went too far. I dropped onto my knees, showed gratitude and cried in vein. I just want to feel it again. I know there’s no turning back, no rearrangement. That’s when I was changed. I’m letting go, waking up and living up to what I had proposed. But I learned from my mistakes. It’s not something you earned but something that you deserve. I’m not afraid to give what my soul expose just wish I could find the film. I had it before, it was everything I fantasizes and better than the preview. I reach out with every breath but the world places my soundtrack on mute. I still sit here on this corner with my sign, why does the world of people with 20/20 act so blind. I know 1 thing if I fall to the ground I will get back up and fight another round. I will promise to hold this sign to the sweet end. My Sign that says “I will work for love”. I will work for love over time, all my life. Can u help me? Can u see…. Did you read my sign?
