Left out

I think it is unfair.
You need an occupation
Not empty days
Maybe a job
For everyone
Flexibility
A couple of hours here and there
In the course of a week
You need the company as well
You need to occupy your thoughts
You don’t need to stare into thin air
And think you are useless
That nobody needs you
You don’t need to do stupid things
To pass your time
You need the money
Instead of being on the dole
Your parents need something to identify with
To relate to
you need other people to make you feel a part of it all
Not just a useless human being
Who others seem to condemn
And judge as leeches on society
Even if you are weak and can’t cope with too much
You still have to feel your worth as a member
Of the community
You don’t need a job where the pressure and heat is on
You need an understanding employer
And an easy job
Where it is just as important to have interaction
With the other employees , your colleagues
I guess I’m screaming for justice
For all unemployed and those who may have a disability
We’re not lazy- we’re just unlucky and forgotten
We’ve been left out
