Sidewalk Of Despair Poem by David Harris

If you chance to walk along
the sidewalk of despair
you will always find
a great many people there.

They are walking with heads bowed
as if in some great shame,
but they are only there
because their world is gone.

Some walk with money problems
so deep they figure they cannot get out;
others walk with heartaches
as their love has gone away.

Whatever the reason
they walk alone
unable to find an answer
along the sidewalk of despair.
