Beggar in the alley by Beatrice Morrisey
Written by Angela M OBrien

It was a cold night in winter, he had no bed to sleep. He was, but a small boy, when his mother gave him to the street.

Since he was nine, he was forced to live, a beggars life. Rummaging through the trash for a meal, how can that be right?

No love, was felt for this boy. No love, was felt from this boy. His heart was incased, in a bulletproof safe. Never touched by another living soul.
