Under Bridge

Underbridge I learnt 
the only person you can trust is yourself 
With handwritten reminders on the wall for myself 
My hand-drawn maps on the concrete above me 
I don't mind doing nothing. 

Underbridge I layed bricks of ideas 
Mixed mortal of hope 
Building tomorrow to the climax 
Not minding what the days may ask. 

In battle with the set-back 
glimmers of hope are easily shattered 
hitches abound when you're homeless 
the fight against decades of the bad 
will never be an easy win 
Howbeit must be won. 

Drifted through odd jobs 
some people even commit crimes 
just so they can get a roof for winter 
A winter vacation to the big house. 

I am responsible for myself 
and happiness comes from within 
All these memory are now in my pouch.
