Mariza's Poem


A normal day walking in the city
As usual people rushing to get to work on time
Coffee in hand, papers in bag,
Just as usual, rushing to get to work

A yell for help
Oh, someone else will help that person,
Oh, someone else will do something about it
Keep walking, you know someone else will help

Nobody notices as they walk by
The girl calling for help
Stuck in the sidewalk crying and yelling
Oh, someone else will help her
You are late as it is,
Someone else will help her

Oh, it's too late
The sidewalk has covered her up,
No more yelling and crying in the middle of the street
From the girl who was stuck in the sidewalk
At least now we will be on time to work
No more distractions from the girl crying and yelling for help
Because no one was there to help her
